ok, give me some red paint.

My red paint has no big impact let's call some real PRO painters ... Vod, where are you?
Sorry mate, but trying this to obvious newbie is quite serious.

BTT: OP you had to find way how to extract the private key from your wallet file. The nuse some lightweight or online wallet to gain back control over your BTC

Thanks for all the advice. I feel much better. I was getting ready to cry over my lost $$. Grin

I will wait another 24 hours and see how the synch is coming. Currently 14 weeks remaining but only about 5 gigs left of memory. Maybe if it doesn't work I will ask for help getting the lite wallet and exporting the key. (Not sure how to do either of this things)

The memory is not issue. Capacity of you HDD matters ... blockchain is quite big (I have 90GB on my HDD at the moment) and all this you have to download. Do not watch the remaining weeks because it is going to grow slower and slower.

Google and youtube can help you a lot with the private key extraction and if not just come back to us. Good luck.
