Hi I have problem with latest version of BOINC client on Windows 7 x64 pro.
Task has 100% and still computing. For 1 hour task, it will compute about 7 hours. After that, I reboot pc.
It happens about one times per week.

How can I solve it? It is wasting of my cpu time...

Thanks for help.

Please report this at the project from which the task is. It's their estimates which are so wildly off, that's not something that the BOINC software can change so easily. It can, but then it has to run several of these tasks to completeness before it starts adapting the time to run to a more correct estimate.
