New BOINC project - mopac

[NeoGen]

I can't run mopac on this old computer... all workunits crash after just a few seconds and I get a windows message asking if I want to send an error report to microsoft...

from what I can see in the log output from your Wus there are several symptoms happening at once.
memory leak
unusual termination of the app-client
wrapper permission error

The OS is well patched (well done) so should no be the problem
the log says you are using boinc6.4.5
first recommendation is to upgrade to a current version of the BOINC client and manager - circa 6.10.x

/me recommends a full uninstall of the client AND hard-delete of the BOINC data folder and the program folder before re-installing BOINC

...more...
I am not convinced that will solve your problem due to the "exit code 195 (0xc3)"
that indicates a control problem between the wrapper and the client-app
...but eliminating 1 problem at a time is a good way to start

I got work too.
Geez - completion times are much too short for me.
Backed off until my D/L limit resets 8(

NeoGen,

Is boinc installed as a service (Proctected Mode) on that machine? If so, mopac will not run when boinc is a service install as it always gets a permission denied error.

[NeoGen]

Humm... yea... it's installed as a service, plus it's supposed to be v6.10.57 but I guess that with so many installations on top of older installations my boinc files are not being updated since 6.4.5??

Oh well... almost everything else runs fine except for Mopac, so I don't think I'm going to change it all because of it just yet. I might hang on to it some more time until I format the computer... it is due already.
