Hey I downloaded the bitcoin client at bitcoin.org,  it has been smooth and working perfectly.  Then all of a sudden after restarting my computer it started giving me these errors ...

"EXCEPTION:  11dbException
Dbc::get: bad adress
C:\Program Files\Bitcoin\bitcoin.exe in CMYapp::OnUnhandledException()"

I click x on that error then this one comes up..

"Runtime Error!
Program:C:\Program Files\Bitcoin\bitcoin.exe
This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way.  Please contact the applications support team for more information."

I'm no expert with computers,  so I have no idea what's going?!  I tried to uninstall then install again,  nothing.  I'm confused lol,  someone please help me fix this problem!

I'd do what was suggested here
http://bitcoinstats.com/irc/bitcoin-dev/logs/2011/07/08/2

1> backup your wallet.dat file. (default location in windows is %appdata%\bitcoin\wallet.dat)
2> delete all the files in the directory where the wallet.dat lived (you do have a backup copy of wallet.dat)
3> copy the wallet.dat back
4> upgrade to the latest bitcoin client (http://www.bitcoin.org/)
5> run it to redownload the entire block chain
(don't panic, it will initially show your balance as 0.00 BTC until the full block chain is downloaded)

Or this may help or be a total waste of time, but even if it fails it may give you a more detailed error message.
1> backup your wallet.dat file (it is always a good idea).
2> start a DOS command shell
3> change directory to the folder where bitcoin.exe is installed (probably "cd C:\Program Files (x86)\Bitcoin")
4> and run bitcoin by hand
     "bitcoin -rescan"  this should rescan the block chain for missing/corrupt wallet transactions.

Which fixed the issue, I'm 99.999% sure that the first thing would fixed almost any issue. I am just curious if you tried the second suggestion at all.
