What do you need to know?

If you want to add the blk0001.dat & blkindex.dat to the wallet folder in Windows to speed up syncing of the wallet;

Go to start > search > then copy/paste %appdata% in the box > click on roaming > find folder newyorkc > paste the 2 files

Advice: first copy your wallet.dat file somewhere, preferably on a usb drive.

Hope this helps...

Thanks, but if you could see that through my eyes you'd know it's all Greek, right after, "if you want to add.....".

I downloaded the first link from pages back but got stuck at "extract bla bla bla".

I know this seems obvious and simple to folks that know, but to those that don't it's impossible. I've never heard any of those terms and never created a single file. If I could see it it would be so easy. (extract, sync, files....dammit!)

I might send the instructions to my IT guy at work and have him show in person. This is why I believe a youtube video is necessary.

I'm a hairs breath from dumping it and giving up because of this. Very frustrating. You guys obviously have no idea how much business is skipping NYC because of this. If I have to figure it all out and make the video myself I'll be pissed! I mean....how lazy are the creators?!!!

Overlooking this is a serious failing IMO.
