Hello, fellows!

BOINC client installer crashes right after its start.
iMac 27' 2012 Ci53200/GF680MX

CUDA driver already installed.

OS X installation is nearly fresh. No garbage. Computer works flawlessly - 0 problems.

First off, try to download the installer again, you may have a corrupt copy.
Second, look up on the search engine of choice what to do about the EXC_BAD_ACCESS error, from just removing some preference files, to changing RAM and hard drives.

Downloaded installer 5 times already.

Everything fine with my RAM. No ANY other flaw in my computer functionality ever. System is quite fresh - no garbage.

Besides, the EXACTLY SAME crash happens on my MBPr 13.

I guess installer is corrupted.

Can someone check if it will even RUN on your machine, please?
Thank you!

Which version of the installer do you have the problem with?

Hello Dr.Alexx,

Please download this build of BOINC and tell us if it fixes your problem. This is a release candidate build we hope to issue soon as a public release if no serious problems are found with it.

Cheers,
