Are you getting a 'can't connect" message? I see you're using 5.2.13, that version of Boinc uses port 1043 for comms between Boinc.exe and Boincmgr.exe. ID: 35905 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote

Did you use the same version or download a new one? Have you tried a restart? If it was a new version, did your firewall software prompt you to allow boinc access to the web? It should have asked for permission for Boincmgr.exe, then Boinc.exe, then Boincscr.exe. ID: 35908 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote

When you restarted, boinc got it, and the other program grabbed a different port. This is why I asked about the restart. good luck and thanks for contributing tony ID: 35910 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote
