The hell is this? Nothing has changed on my PC since I last used bitcoin, the only thing that has changed is turning my laptop off and back on to move it upstairs. http://img3.imageshack.us/img3/7657/53214461.gif |

Transactions must be included in a block to be properly completed. When you send a transaction, it is broadcast to miners. Miners can then optionally include it in their next blocks. Miners will be more inclined to include your transaction if it has a higher transaction fee.

look at your wallet.dat.
is it still there?
what is the 'last access' timestamp on the file? does that fit with the last time you accessed it?

hmmm.
i'd try stashing my whole bitcoin client in some other directory, installing a new client, deleting the wallet and block index from the new client, putting the old wallet into it and starting it up.

I had this error the first few times I tried to run the client. I can't remember what I did to fix it. I think I had to uninstall it, delete the app_data\roaming\bitcoin\ folder, reinstall, and the first time I ran the client after that I left it open long enough for it to download the entire block chain.
Somewhere in those steps I took at least one thing I did appeared to have fixed the problem. It also could have been because the bitcoin client took a long time to open, so I double clicked the icon more than once to see if it would open again. I had several bitcoin.exe processes showing up in task manager. I think one of them was locking one of the files in app_data\roaming\, which caused the error.

deleting blkindex fixed the problem, but now it has to download all the blocks again i had a similar problem happen to me before but with a different error it seems to involve having the client open when you unplug/hard reboot your pc |

Your wallet or blockchain db is probably corrupted. backup wallet, delete folder and see if it works. otherwise use bitcointools to try to recover your wallet if you have no backup

Is there any harm in continuing to use a previous version of BitCoin, provided the older version has worked well, in the past? There is nothing in the previous version that would prevent my transactions from being recognized and completed, correct?
