I haven't opened armory for a while because I use bitcoin qt for day to day use. Now I was going to transfer funds to my qt wallet, but I can't connect armory up to the blockchain. It scans the chain for 5-10 minutes, then I get a runtime error from windows, and it shuts down. Anyone have a clue what might be the problem?

Probably you have been hit by some of the data structures used to represent the block chain are now to big to be addressed in a 32-bit application. You suddently need a 64 bit version of Armory. That is very unfortunate, and unfortunately only one of many problems caused by the exploding size of the block chain.

Make sure you are using the latest 64-bit version of the software available at the downloads page. If not, make sure you uninstall the old version first, before installing the new version. Your wallets are safe through an uninstall-reinstall cycle.

I'm working on the "persistent blockchain" stuff that will resolve all these issues. I have been completely consumed by other important things, so this has been slower than I expected. But it's top of my priority list, for when I do eventually get enough development time to do it.
