So i think its the RAM issue, system says running 4GB, 3GB usable. Just checked machine and says online, the minute i click on something i get the "not responding" msg and have to close it down.
I have an older Armory (0.82.2) running on my laptop which does have 4GB RAM and i used last year. So taking into account i'm pretty computer spaz, to get back my 5 BTC do i copy the Armory.wallet file into Armory on my laptop?
thanks again.
Yeah, you can copy the wallet file to another version of Armory. Or you can load Armory in offline mode (from the Start menu) and then you can "Backup Individual Keys" to get the private keys out of your wallet. A lot of other apps allow key importing.
