Hi guys,

i not that tech savvy. meaning i cant do anything CLI, but am a windows user for 15 years and know my way around there and a bit in building PCs.

So im new to this but i wanted to do my part for the network and run a full node on my thin client.

Specs:
Win 10
CPU G3420
8GB Ram
256SSD
and second drive 1TB HDD (Node on here)

28.1 Downloaded at https://bitcoincore.org/en/download/ and verified


I synced for a fews weeks now. Its around 97% , when i open it, it progresses some 0,xx% butt then always fails after a minute or so, i get an
error saying:
"Error reading from database, shutting down."

What can i do? Any advice?
thank you guys in advance.
