This evening my screensaver has gone all peculiar. The globe is very foggy and all the text has been replaced by white rectangles

regards

John

Hi John, and welcome to the message board.

That\'s because it\'s a slab model (i.e. hadsm3) and has just finished the first phase - at which point the graphics loses touch with the data. The solution is simple: just exit and restart BOINC Manager.

There are diagnostic pictures here.

I have just experienced the same today. After stopping the WU and BOINC Manager, taking a backup, then restarting it again, the fog has cleared up.
