Go into the Boinc Manager down by the clock, and do a right click on it then a left click to open it. Go into Advanced and then Preferences and then click on the tab labeled Processor usage. About half way down you will see a line that has the number 25 in it, this line tell your pc to stop processing Boinc whenever your cpu gets down to only that much free cpu. Change that to a zero and you should have plenty of time to finish your units on time. The exact sentence of the line is:
While processor usage is less than [] percent(0 means no restriction)

Change this so it works best for your pc usage. The real answer to your problem is to install more ram but that may not be practical so try this first. IF you use your pc for other stuff you may have to change that number back up towards 25 again but do it slowly and figure out what you can live with before you make another change. The number is how much of the cpu is FREE, NOT how much is used!!
