well I have tried this out both with windows XP and Vista and after a short while (a day max), boinc and gridrep doesn't communicate anymore at all. so I´ve gone back to gridrepublic's own desktop version that works fine ....but it would be nice to get the newer boinc versions to work because some projects use only boincs v 6+ :-)

Hmm this is strange as it is working fine for me.
Can you provide more detail as to what is not working properly? Are you seeing any messages either popping up?
Boinc just has a connection with gridrepublic for a few secs and loses it tries to reconnect and loses it again..also if I try to sync to GR it won't work ... everything freezes more or less up, including no communication with projects, no work done. I tried leaving it on for a night... still the same... uninstall and reinstall, repairing; I even went to registry and remove all traces of boinc before reinstalling but still no luck.
well maybe I'll wait for a new version of boinc and retry then... :-)

New version of boinc (6.6.41) now installed and it works like a charm :-)
Glad to hear that 6.6.41 is working for you.
Just a note from the BOINC news regarding 6.6.41:
"October 28, 2009 - http://boinc.berkeley.edu - News - The Windows builds of 6.6.41 has been pulled from the Download page due to a application version mismatch with some Microsoft components. Please use the 6.6.38 version until 6.10 is released. "
