21) Message boards : Number crunching : Invalid rate. (Message 172) Posted 18 Jan 2019 by adrianxw Post: My printer is old. It is an HP Laserjet 4. I have had it since late in the last centuary. I have rarely used it, but it is sometimes nice to be able to knock out 20 Christmas circulars.I bought a newer, modern, printer, a colour inkjet, but rarely need to print anything and it quickly died with blocked jets. The laser just kept knocking out the 20-30 sheets per year I needed. I rebuilt my systems to all 64 bit and didn't really think about it until the Christmas circular was dawning, and have been fiddling with it since.

Maybe the wrong VirtualBox version, insufficient memory, overclocking or whatever? <<< Interesting though, isn't it, that the problem is only found with THIS project? With the virtualbox version, putting an older version on, instead of the current, is not a solution, it is a bodge.

(Message 166) Posted 17 Jan 2019 by adrianxw Post: I have the installer for VirtualBox 5.1.28 on the disk here, so have installed it and will try again later. I can't do it now, I have to build a 32 bit system on another SSD, I need to have a working printer, and my Laserjet does not appear to have a 64bit driver.

There were no jobs available, but that happens. Yesterday, jobs started appearing. The results are less than inspiring: Valid : 8 Invalid : 90 Error : 7 No new tasks set on both machines, which are running Windows 8.1 x64. There is something wrong here.
