I have a Timless Tinker installed on a 450 mHz PIII. It usually finishes one in about 10 days. It seems to have stalled at 65% of the way to finish and has not moved for the last several days although EMIII still counts the frame down and says the core is good. Even though EMIII shows the frame progressing the actual work unit never advances and is stuck after finishing frame 260/400.

Here is part of the log:

[15:40:37] Finished a frame (260)

78 H 33.301200 -102.206224 96.521297 21 77
79 H 33.466020 -100.851197 97.341755 21 77
80 H 33.372782 -100.790002 95.714076 21 77
81 N 25.922539 -101.741334 93.981344 3 70 82 85
82 CH 25.559335 -101.883762 92.585852 6 81 83 86
83 C 24.738690 -100.673905 92.162449 1 82 84 90
84 O 23.830486 -100.245798 92.871202 2 83
85 H 2

Does anyone know what this means? What should/can I do to get it started again? :shrug:

very odd. as a last resort you can always delete the work unit and it will download a new one. I will look around to see what that means.

The log has gotten corrupt which happens occasionally on FAH 4.x running under Windows 98. Stop the client and restart. Often you'll find it has been folding and making progress but writing garbage in the log. I don't know the cause but have seen it at times on my legacy rigs.
