Have you tried leaving the wallet closed on one of your windows machines for a couple of weeks so it's forced to do a resync?

Yes and it usually works fine.

The good news is you've provided a descriptive error message to help pinpoint the issue. The bad news is this seems to be a problem which has exist for several years in other altcoins such as litecoin and still hasn't been fixed: https://litecointalk.org/index.php?topic=10746.0

My naive guess would be that you might have cryptonited already running in the background or something.

I thought the code was forked from bitcoin rather than litecoin as that what it says in the description.
I guess the other altcoins don't have the same need for resync as the don't use the mini blockchain scheme. Cryptonite seems to need a resync if a node hasn't connected for over a week. Looking back at the debug.log file the following error is from when I ran the client the other day:-
'Warning: saved state too old. Fast forward sync may not be possible. Run Resync!!!'
This is when I clicked resync and after that it crashed with the error I posted before. It was the only copy of cryptonited running at the time, I don't think it's even possible to start two copies at the same time.
After the crash I no longer have a blk00000.dat file so I get the following error messages when I try to start the client:-
2015-01-31 20:15:46 Unable to open file C:\coins\cryptonite\blocks\blk00000.dat

It spends a while on the splash screen saying 'loading block index' and then it fails with 'failed to read block2'

It should work if I do the usual trick of deleting everything bar the wallet.dat including the registry entries to re-install the client. But I'll leave it in the current state in case you need any more logs from it as I don't need to make any transactions now.
