Hi,
Should I remove those two WUs which are currently running?
Will I get credits if I submit beyond the deadlines?

It's completely up to you. You should read this post about variable deadlines. It looks like those computers are doing about 1% per calendar day, and thus have about 80 days to go. Will you get credit? Yes, as long as you keep making steady progress.
It comes down to whether or not you want to be running tasks for 100 days or so. If anything goes wrong, all that time is wasted. If I was running a computer that slow (or one that was effectively slow because it's only running part time), I would be running short tasks on it rather than the longest that we offer.

Thank you.
I have aborted them. Primegrid was running fine until I started to receive SOB WUs, ONLY!
I have updated my preferences to the following, I don't trust any project now! I'll give it a go and see with hopes that I receive WUs (finger crossed)

You are receiving GPU tasks, so I assume you're talking only about CPU tasks, right?
The following 5 tasks were sent to your computer on June 29th and July 3rd:
http://www.primegrid.com/result.php?resultid=917126508
http://www.primegrid.com/result.php?resultid=917126157
http://www.primegrid.com/result.php?resultid=916238547
http://www.primegrid.com/result.php?resultid=916160440
http://www.primegrid.com/result.php?resultid=915974330
This is why you are not getting any CPU tasks:
I have updated my preferences to the following...
Use CPU no
I am unclear about what are you trying to do. I thought you didn't want any CPU tasks.
Because you have the "Use CPU" box unchecked, this will completely prevent you from receiving any CPU tasks. If you want CPU tasks, you need to check that box.
If that doesn't help, please explain what tasks you wish to receive, and we'll help any way we can.

Dear,...
I have no PRIMEGRID WUs running or in progress on computer id 932580 (CPU or GPU) since I aborted the two SOB (CPU)mentioned above on 5 Jul 2018. They were the ONLY two running at that time and for several days.
This is why you are not getting any CPU tasks:
I have updated my preferences to the following...
Use CPU no
I am unclear about what are you trying to do. I thought you didn't want any CPU tasks.
Because you have the "Use CPU" box unchecked, this will completely prevent you from receiving any CPU tasks. If you want CPU tasks, you need to check that box.
I'm aware. As I said I have changed my preferences to NO CPU in response to your message Message 119231. So yes, I don't want any CPU WU from Primegrid, but only GPU's.
If that doesn't help, please explain what tasks you wish to receive, and we'll help any way we can.
I want "Tasks" that do not abuse my host CPU by sending to it WUs which their computation CAN NOT be completed before the deadline.
How on earth?!
Thanks,
O&O

Are you saying that those tasks aren't actually on your computer?

Okay, sometimes a communications glitch causes tasks to get lost between the server and the host computer. The lost tasks can usually be safely ignored. That shouldn't stop you from getting more tasks.
Can you look in your BOINC log and see whether your computer is requesting more work from PrimeGrid when you hit the "Update" button?

Which log you want me to trace?
Currently they are set to file_xfer and task
7/5/2018 11:20:39 PM | PrimeGrid | update requested by user
7/5/2018 11:20:43 PM | PrimeGrid | Sending scheduler request: Requested by user.
7/5/2018 11:20:43 PM | PrimeGrid | Not requesting tasks: don't need (CPU: not highest priority project; NVIDIA GPU: job cache full)
7/5/2018 11:20:46 PM | PrimeGrid | Scheduler request completed
From the preferences, shall I enable one CPU sup-project and try again? Which one you recommend?

I believe you already have GCW-Sieve selected as a CPU task, all you have to do is check the "Use CPU" box. However, the red part of the message (my emphasis) I believe is saying that your computer wants to get tasks from another project instead of PrimeGrid. You may need to set the other projects to "No New Work" in order to fetch work from PrimeGrid.
GCW-Sieve (which you already have selected), Sophie Germain Search (SGS), PPSE-LLR, and PPS-LLR are all fairly short tasks.
7/5/2018 11:20:43 PM | PrimeGrid | Not requesting tasks: don't need (CPU: not highest priority project; NVIDIA GPU: job cache full)
It's also not asking for any GPU tasks from PrimeGrid because it thinks it already has enough GPU work, possibly from other projects. If you suspend all the other projects it should request GPU tasks from PrimeGrid. If you also check the "Use CPU" box, it should request both CPU and GPU tasks.
Of course, if you suspend the other projects, then any tasks you may be currently running from those projects won't be completed. If it were me, I'd just set the other projects to "no new work", let the currently running tasks complete, and then it should download more tasks from PrimeGrid.

OMG!

1) I did exactly what you said above and selected the additional 3 projects.
If you suspend all the other projects it should request GPU tasks from PrimeGrid. If you also check the "Use CPU" box, it should request both CPU and GPU tasks.
2) Started to suspend Moo, Einstein and then GPUGRID, ... Collatz was on no new tasks already and VUALLAA!
More than 90 SETI tasks (all GPU) started to download together with 11 PrimeGrid tasks of which, 3 were GPU and all are ready to start!
<pause>
@ Michael Goetz,... my dear
I can't thank you enough for your assistance and most importantly your patience while looking into the issues I have. I have learned a lot... and have learned it from a true "master" on the subject.
Thank you again and I wish for you all the success in finding no less than 11 "lucky numbers" before the end of the year!
Take care,
Over & Out

Sorry to hear about the problem.
Don't worry about the task. The server will take care of it when it expires and send out a replacement task.
