5) Message boards : News : New Runs (Message 67382) Posted 22 Apr 2018 by Nicklw Post: Jake,thanks for looking into it for me however the problem still exists and so unfortunately I've joined another site as well, I would love to dedicate my computers to Milkyway only but as I have said I can't check every half hour or so to see if every thing is operating OK. Please let me know if you do find what the problem is and if it is fixed then I will return in full, by the way it maybe why you are having trouble with unreliable hosts, worth looking into wouldn't you say? Regards, Nick

I can't remember the modfit units are affected but I may be wrong. I look forward to your reply Nick
7) Message boards : News : New Runs (Message 67337) Posted 16 Apr 2018 by Nicklw Post: Hello Jake and others, I have been with Milkyway for quite a while now and everything has been basically OK but over the last six or seven months the WU's I'm getting that run on 3 CPU's have been slowing down and stopping with the time remaining just adding up, pausing them for half an hour or so helps with most but not all, when you changed the work unit priority to 1 from 0 everything went well then when you changed back it all went haywire again. Can anyone offer advice on this?????
