Hi,

There is probably some corruption in the files. The only thing I can suggest is to make 100% of BOINC is uninstalled. I have Windows 7 64-bit and I know some times what happens is the BOINC data in the program data folder doesn't get erased.

To get to the program data folder, go to computer from the start menu, then OS (C:),open the program data folder, and then there might be a folder called BOINC that might need to be erased. Also and at the same time, make sure there isn't any BOINC folder in the Program Files (x86) folder which should be just above the Program Data folder.
