I have just noticed that within the last few days the Rosetta screen saver just shows a black screen. When I move the mouse, an error window comes up saying that task such-and-such (the screen saver from the context -- didn't write down the name) has stalled with options to about, debug, or wait for it to run. This is on a Windows 7 machine. Screen savers from other BOINC projects work just fine. Is this a known problem, or is something kapooie with this machine?

OK, I know that one gets better thru-put not running BOINC screen savers, but this machine is in a "public area" and the screen savers are nice for public relations.

I guess no one else ever had this problem ... anyway, I reset the project and it went away (the problem, that is).
