Hi Guys,

just after some help please. i downloaded hyp wallet on new machine last night, it was synching fine so i sent some HYP from polo to the new address, then fell asleep. When i woke up my machine had turned itself off and when i reboot and try and run hyperstake-qt it gives me an error saying "error loading blkindex.dat" and the application closes. does anyone have any ideas what may be wrong? i know i was bit stupid to send my coins before it had fully synched, will there be any way to recover them?

thanks in advance for any assistance offered.  Wink
Hi and welcome!
I never experienced this. I'd say: delete all the content of your %Appdata%HyperStake folder (assuming you're on Windows, ~/.HyperStake if you are on Mac or Linux) EXCEPT the wallet and maybe .conf/.config). Then restart and wait for resync (and cancel the autosleep feature on your machine at least until sync is complete).
I guess this was some kind of data corruption at OS level (power out, maybe?), not something related to HYP itself.


Thanks David - i deleted everything apart from wallet.dat, and now the wallet runs fine and is synching again   Smiley
