I'm assuming you had an old version installed at one point. It probably left some tricky registry setting somewhere. I think the easiest thing to do is to re-install the old version and then uninstall it using the add/remove thing in the control panel. You can find all the previous (and current) versions of boinc at http://boinc.berkeley.edu/dl/. |
