Title: Bitcoin Core Shutting Computer Down Post by: nobodyknowz on February 02, 2015, 07:27:30 PM Hi, For some reason just after bitcoin core has done its checking on the first app page it completely shuts down my laptop.
This is after leaving on all night to download the database Cheers, James Title: Re: Bitcoin Core Shutting Computer Down Post by: arara on February 02, 2015, 07:53:31 PM maybe your CPU is overheating, therefore auto shutting down computer?
Title: Re: Bitcoin Core Shutting Computer Down Post by: nobodyknowz on February 02, 2015, 08:28:03 PM No because "Bitcoin Armory" is shutting it down too when its loading the database.
Think its a bad block ive downloaded, ive made a coin request and sent the coins over, there not showing up yet. So my question is Will i lose the transaction if i start re-installing bitcoin core or delete the blocks? Cheers, James Title: Re: Bitcoin Core Shutting Computer Down Post by: koelen3 on February 02, 2015, 08:44:33 PM If you delete the database ,the coins will be lost , just make a back-up and try again (re-install)
But i would recommend to let it sit for some more hours , sometime it takes time but it cover ups the bad block autmatically Title: Re: Bitcoin Core Shutting Computer Down Post by: nobodyknowz on February 02, 2015, 08:59:09 PM So that "log.0000000001" has my transaction/coins in that im waiting for?

I think you got it all wrong, he downloaded a bitcoin wallet and tried to download the database. Title: Re: Bitcoin Core Shutting Computer Down Post by: nextblast on February 03, 2015, 12:37:44 AM Maybe just a hdd failure, as bitcoin core requires ~30G of your hdd space, and asks for a lot of disk IO.
Title: Re: Bitcoin Core Shutting Computer Down Post by: neurotypical on February 03, 2015, 01:54:16 AM Bitcoin core obliterates my computer's resources an my computer isn't precisely old. I dont get what kind of specs you need to run this smoothly.
Title: Re: Bitcoin Core Shutting Computer Down Post by: techgeek on February 03, 2015, 01:58:17 AM It shouldnt take that much space on your hard drive... can you provide your specs on your computer?
i have a mac thats like 4 years old, running 3 ghz and some lame atx graphics card, 4gb, i3 processor.

Depends on type. Let's say like a solid state usage is a lot more then typical optical drives. It would have more to do with storage disk then other specs on recent laptops (last few years).

Title: Re: Bitcoin Core Shutting Computer Down Post by: nobodyknowz on February 03, 2015, 07:39:29 AM OK, so i delete all the blocks which reset me back to 6 years+, left "Bitcoin Armory" on download/building the blocks back.

Cheers, James online wallets are not secure Title: Re: Bitcoin Core Shutting Computer Down Post by: ranochigo on February 03, 2015, 09:03:41 AM Bitcoin armory is pretty much the same as Bitcoin core. Any SPV wallet would be nearly as safe if installed on a online computer while taking less time to sync, if you are in a hurry, you can just import it on blockchain.info or any other SPV client.

Title: Re: Bitcoin Core Shutting Computer Down Post by: ChuckBuck on February 03, 2015, 03:17:57 PM Transfer your funds out of Bitcoin Core to Electrum, Multibit or Green Address instead, so you don't have download the entire BlockChain.
https://bitcoin.org/en/choose-your-wallet You can export your private keys, send funds to BlockChain.info wallet temporarily, then send from Blockchain.info to Electrum or one of the other desktop wallets.

Cheers, James did you try to download the blockchain torrent file from bitcoin.org? https://bitcoin.org/bin/blockchain/bootstrap.dat.torrent download it then copy on your bitcoin install dir and open the wallet... doing so, you can avoid to download all the blockchain from wallet... hope this fix your issue!!!! |
