So a little more background on the Quad Core machine. It sits idle meaning i dont really do anything with it anymore since purchasing the other rig you see. It does run my plex server however im not runnning Boinc if im using plex. Im a bit of a minimalist...i dont have alot of things running in the background. my Radeon software, Windows defender, Plex, Open Hardware Monitor.

Onto other things: So a couple of the tasks ive looked at is within this range so far. I did adjust the settings locally to 3 CPUs but i didnt have any GPU tasks running. I have noticed when it stalls the load on my cores just bottom out. I can suspend it and restart it and it goes back to crunching like nothing was wrong. And as i stated when i ran this a couple weeks i was having zero issues until i had to create a new account to get both my computers on the same account. .
Virtual Memory Size @ 10.91 MB
Working Set Size @ 14.66 MB

I would put a screenshot here of my Open Hardware Monitor and Task Manager but i have no way to link to them. However Hardware Monitor and Task Manager both show my memory load @ 2.9 GB and having about 5.2 GB of memory available. I will keep an eye on it after adjusting it to use 3 CPUs instead of the 4.[/img]

Ok i had to find the setting to unhide my computers. I think i found it and updated the settings. Any help would be appreciated. For more information i was running this a couple weeks ago...and couldnt link my 2 pcs...to the same account...so i had to start all over. The box im currently having issues with had no problems running it prior to this round.

Also if theres any other helpful info to help fix this issue please feel free to ask.

I donate down time on 2 different boxs i run at home. One is having some issues...It will start out saying like 3 hours for completion and it will end up saying crazy time like 20 hours...it basically just stalls out. not sure whats going on with it currently. It seems to only be CPU items...not GPU items. My job is requiring alot of extra hours so i have not had the time to even look into this problem. I know this isnt much help as to what the issue might be but maybe someone can point me in the general direction of a solution. Thanks
