Yes, you could also pause or restart the client and it might pick up the older WU in the Ready state rather than the one it is folding now.

Did you add a new CPU or a new GPU?

The first couple hundred lines of your log after starting up with the new hardware should show what the client detected and did. In the best case after finishing the newly downloaded WU the client will finish up the older one. You can post that log section here for people to look at and check.

What is recommended is to set the client to finish any current work before making hardware changes. It handles the changes better and reduces the chance of dumping a WU.
