Hi and thanks for the help. I downloaded the .conf file from the link you provided and deleted my existing one and replaced it with the one you provided but still have majority of my coins stuck in "Staking" and nothing I try can get them into spendable. I changed the reserved amount to the amount stuck and it made no difference either and I tried the reserve amount at 0000 and still stuck. I am not sure what to do or where to go from here. Any help would be really appreciated.

Updated the Silkcoin folder up to block 1758147 for easy sync

Silkcoin Folder Update

This is the old Silkcoin blockchain
not the new SLK blockchain
DON'T MIX THEM UP

How to use instructions at the end of this post

Also added separately silkcoin.conf
download just that if you're synced and put it in your Silkcoin folder
it contains staking=0 line as well cause it's no point in staking the old coin anyway

Set your reserve amount to all 9's (999999999) that's the amount you are telling the wallet to KEEP from staking. Not sure if if will help release the coins in staking but it may.

Just thought of something else you can try if nothing else works. You could try exporting the private keys from your current wallet and the importing them into a new wallet. Ive done that for many other coin wallets in the past which had gotten screwed up. To do it;

With you current wallet running and unlocked, go to Actions -> Debug, then select the Console tab.

For each of your addresses, enter
dumpprivkey

Copy and paste each of the keys it responds with to notepad
Save the file when you have dumped all your addresses, but leave it open.

Exit (close) the wallet
Go to your Slikcoin data directory
Rename the existing wallet.dat file to something like orig_wallet.dat (so you have a copy)

Restart the SilkCoin wallet (it will create a new wallet)
When it shows it is synced, go back to the console (Actions -> Debug, then select the Console tab)

Now using the list of keys you saved in the notepad file, ether the following command for each private key you have;

importprivkey you can include a label in quotes if you want

I'm posting this during my commute to the day job so the commands are from memory, I think I got them right, but if anyone sees an error, please chime in with the correction

Well I am at a complete loss. I have been at this crap for days now and my coins are still stuck in staking and I cannot move them. Where do we go from here.

What does your silk.conf file look like (without the rpcuser/rpcpassword)? You should add these lines:
staking=0
stakegen=0
reservebalance=100000000

If that doesn't work, please send me a PM.
