Try that, that should work!

It seems Rob has updated the gridcoin.us back to 2.1.0.7. I downloaded it and was able to sync.

However, I kept getting "wallet.dat corrupt, salvage failed" errors.

I tried all my backup wallets and all with the same error.

Also tried "gridcoin_qt -salvagewallet -rescan -reindex" with no luck.

Anybody has better idea on how to recover the wallet.

I was running 2.1.0.4 earlier. Could that be a problem?

Does anybody have the 2.1.0.4 version so that I could try whether I can recover the wallet?

Your help will be greatly appreciated.

Have you tried to rebulit the bolck chain?
You can delete the files in "C:\Users\your PC user name\AppData\Roaming\Gridcoin" ,only  leave gridcoin.conf  and wallet.dat.Then run the wallet software  Run as Administrator,the wallet software will restat and update.WHen the update done,it will download the blocks chain.

Hope it works. Smiley
