I have about same coins as u staking ..I unlocked wallet and checked the box for staking ...1st day staking last night and got 2 rewards...correct 1 was after 26 confirmations ...also staking light never came on and never said it was staking but it is. 
    Oh all this is on a windows 7 machine..also at this point I haven't changed anything in wallet folders.
    I see kore going a long way and seeing it gain traction and support will be gratifying.
