Title: Bitcoin just stopped working, errors out.
Post by: Kaninm on August 27, 2011, 08:47:24 PM
Hello, hopping someone might provide some insight to a problem that I've started having with the bitcoin program.

Randomly a week ago (after a restart) bitcoin started erroring out with a failed to load blkindex.dat message. I tried completely uninstalling it (including deleting all data files associated with it) and reinstalling. It works for a day, then eventually errors again. I just formatted and reinstalled windows yesturday and it was working fine, until I get home today and it wont load again, same error.

Anybody have any ideas?

Already tried multiple times, and the format and reload of windows def took care of it. No luck though =(
