I have done a few forum and Google searches so forgive me if this problem has been covered, I didn’t see it.

I did a new install for a new MB and proc. Since installing the full set of software and drivers, I cannot get Bionic to run. It gives me an error message as soon as it launches or loads on boot up "BIONIC client has stopped working" and problem details of

When I select close the program, the manager doesn’t actually close and error repeats 3 times before actually stopping. I have un/reinstalled a few times but nothing changes. I made an exception for the program and the IP in my firewall.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. I hope I’m overlooking something easy so I can get back to work, errrummm downtime… LOL

Please check in your BOINC data directory (default at C:\Programdata\BOINC\) for the stderrdae.txt file and post its contents.

Apropos, it's BOINC, not Bionic.
This in case you start typing in wrong paths.

Extra question, do you have OpenCL drivers installed for the Intel HD Graphics 4000 chipset? Or do you have the Intel OpenCL SDK installed?

All the data in there if from the 18-19th, nothing noted for today. It was working fine yesterday. Last logs seem to be normal stuff. Apparently not all of it got erased in the uninstall.
Just some of the log.

Extra question, do you have OpenCL drivers installed for the Intel HD Graphics 4000 chipset? Or do you have the Intel OpenCL SDK installed?

I see "OpenCL" in a few places in the Driver files list.

Apparently not all of it got erased in the uninstall.

A BOINC uninstallation just deletes the BOINC program files. It leaves the BOINC limited user account, work groups and data directory in place.

Uhm... check the C:\Program Files\ and C:\Program Files (x86)\ directories, please. In which of these is there a BOINC directory?

---

Its in C:\program files

Not the X86

I also renamed the original ProgramData\BIONIC folder just to see if it helped.. It had the same error.

OK, that was just to check if it was in the right directory.

You say you installed a new motherboard an processor.
- Did you reinstall Windows afterwards?
- Did you do that with the BOINC data directory in place on the drive?
- Have you checked permissions on the BOINC Data directory?
-- Have you tried to force ownership, using the "change owner to:" tool from the Advanced Security Settings dialog?

---

Yes, full clean format and install but it was working untill I did the video drivers and update

- Did you do that with the BOINC data directory in place on the drive?

not sure what you mean here, but uninstalled, renamed then installed fresh from the web

- Have you checked permissions on the BOINC Data directory?
-- Have you tried to force ownership, using the "change owner to:" tool from the Advanced Security Settings dialog?

I am the admin and only account on the computer.

Just noticed the tray icon is still active and has a red dot. It says "Not connected to a client." When you hover over it.

I am the admin and only account on the computer.

Actually, there'll be a "Guest" account, (an "Administrator" account) and the "boinc_master" and "boinc_projects" accounts on the system now as well. You can check that with "Net User" from a command line window. ;)

Now then, use Windows Explorer to open C:\Programdata\
Right Click on BOINC (still not Bionic).
Choose Properties.
Choose Security.
Please post the "Group or user names" and their permissions for the system.

Have you got an anti virus software package installed?
Did you exclude the BOINC Data directory from being actively scanned? -- if not, do this first. Also do this for other anti-malware packages.
Do you have BOINC allowed through your firewall?
-- boinc.exe needs access on TCP 80 and 443
-- boinc.exe and boincmgr.exe need access on TCP 31416 for localhost (127.0.0.1)

Check in Windows Event Viewer (Start->Administrative Tools->Event Viewer) for any yellow or red markers in and around the problem times.

- Did you install the Nvidia drivers from the Nvidia download page?
- Did you install the Intel (motherboard chipset) drivers from the Intel download page?
- Which BIOS version is your motherboard?

There is always a separate, hidden, superuser account called 'Administrator', as described in

Yes, full clean format and install but it was working untill I did the video drivers and update

Do you remember which video drivers? The ones for your Nvidia card or the Intel GPU?

I'm highly suspecting the Intel OpenCL drivers for this, as it's given other people problems --although no complete client crash. There doesn't seem to be a way to uninstall only the OpenCL component of these drivers, though. They're integrated in the "Intel Graphics Media Accelerator Driver" package. Unless they show up as being separate in the Uninstall a program tool in Windows.

---

Well I found a new driver on the Intel page you gave. That fixed it!

Thankyou for your time and expertice.
Tell the boss I said to double your salary. =)

Thanks for the kind wishes, but it'll still be nothing. I volunteer here.

Glad your problem's fixed, though. :-)
