hopefully this channel is still alive....

 I need help with a QT ver. 4.8.5 wallet.dat that is corrupt somehow.

#1  trying to replace the wallet.bat file into the same dir but keeps failing and just hang
    at "Loading block index" then no more.

#2  if I hover mouse over the wallet it just shows the spinning timer forever.

#3  remove all files except all the dll's and the config file
    and restart, starts fine but all frome day 1. (sync and no Bal)

#4  if wallet.dat just copied over wallet fails with "Fatal error occored"
    or exception ST13runtime error"

#5  replace wallet.dat while wallet running... a program error pops up
    and locksup the wallet completely.

#6  after running several hours with brand new install, stop mid sync and try to restart,
    no go just hangs...

#7  repeat step #1
