Had this happen 3 or 4 times since last posting, tried a few things on my own and nothing seemed to stop the random crash. I've just now set the cache to 50 megs, will report if that makes an improvement.
mmh i can only think of something wrong with your os installation, or maybe your cpu is at 100% when you run the client?
, it happens during the day when I am away at work.
I chalk it up to my old computers, if I get motivated enough I'll try the Linux partition, or I may just do nothing until I eventually build a new computer.
I assume the reduction to 50 MB cache did not help.
Could this be an issue related to some sort of sleep or stand by mode that is enabled after some time? Is there any setting in WinXP or the BIOS enabled that could result in a some sort of sleep that could cause issues with bitcoin core?
Nope, the 50MB setting didn't change anything. I tried 150MB, too, just in case, but no luck.
My comp does not have any sleep or stand-by mode or anything, it's been on 24/7 for the last 8 years or something.
I'm sure it's just gremlins with my box, I've given up trying to figure it out.
