boinc 6.6.36 installed: help

[Annabel]

I just noticed there was a new, so called, stable version of boinc and wanted to give it a try. So I installed the 6.6.36 version on my vista 64 bit system. I wish I did not choose to do that. I get an error message that tells me that "The feature that you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable." Select the correct directory where the isntaller created the boinc.msi file in C:\windows\downlaoded installations does not help and you get the messages in attachment. Off course the install already removed part of the previous boinc, so I can not use it anymore.
Someone an idea what to do?
Does someone still has a boinc 6.6.15 installer or an installer of an other 6.6 version for windows that is working as it should?

All previous versions of Boinc remain available permanently. For the latest the URL was http://boincdl.ssl.berkeley.edu/dl/b...s_intelx86.exe
For previous versions just fill in the right version number. So for 6.6.15 it is http://boincdl.ssl.berkeley.edu/dl/b...s_intelx86.exe

EDIT: This BB doesn't show the full links. Just click on them.

I have a 6.6.36 version installed on two 64 bits Vistas and both are running fine. Are you sure you have the 64 bits version? Tutta's links are pointing to the 32 bits version ... The 64 bits versions are labeled X86_64.

Yes. I always ran the 64 bits version, though the 32 bit should work as well as far as I know.

Thanks a lot. I did not know that. I just downgraded with boinc_6.6.15_windows_x86_64.exe and it works as it should.

EDIT: als gevolg van jullie hulp, heb ik nu de 2M mijlpaal net gehaald, 1000x dank Raby en Tutta55

Projects do not rely on powerful supercomputers for its data processing; instead, the primary contributors to the projects are many thousands of personal computer users who have installed BOINC client program.

Yes, that is the BOINC spirit

Er is blijkbaar een bug in de installer opgelost, want nu kon ik de laatste 64-bits developmentversie (6.10.50) installeren.
