Hi Levent,

it seems that your computers are capable of running Rosetta.
What version of BOINC are you running?

In your profile, under general preferences, you can:
Change "Do work while computer is in use?" to No if it helps.
I would set "Leave applications in memory while preempted?" to yes.
Perhaps it is better to tell your host with only 256MB RAM to use only 1 CPU ("On multiprocessors, use at most"

Any antivirus running? I would exclude BOINC folder from scanning [It is a known issue than AV may crash a computation by locking some files; spotted on CPDN].

Any overclocking? Heating issue?
Have you performed some stability tests like Prime, Memtes etc?

EDIT: I'm a bit confused with name of the tread - would you like to trying to solve the problem or disallow to download more work for Rosetta?
I would first try to solve anyway...in case you do not success, choose "No more work" fo Rosetta on project tab of BOINC Manager.

I think he/she is saying they cannot do other work (play a game, run another porject, browse the web ...) as if they do they get an error.

Answer
- It is a bug the certainly needs fixing some time soon. Seems to happen o everyone until they ask in the forum ;)

Temporary Fix
- Set "Leave applications in memory while preempted?" to Yes.
