Just go to %appdata%/bitstar and delete peers.dat, that contains all ips your client as seen. resetting should start you from our master seed nodes.

OK, deleted peers.dat and restarted the wallet but same result as before: still stuck at block 458314 and not synching  - after about 15 or 20 minutes the wallet stopped connecting to the network.

What can I do next to get the wallet synching?

Thanks.

You could do a full resynch which will work.

-Go to appdata/roaming and back up your wallet.dat & Bitstar.conf file (if you have a conf file) delete everything else.

-Download bootstrap here - http://www.bitstarcoin.com/bootstrap.dat

-Drag and drop bootstrap.dat into your appdata/roaming/Bitstar folder

-Launch wallet - expect about 4 hours to synch

-After synch your bootstrap.dat will be renamed as bootstrap.dat.old which you can safely delete to get back drive space.

Thanks

OK, I'll delete the following


Database
.lock
blk0001.dat
blkindex.dat
db.log
debug.log
peers.dat

And leave in place the wallet.dat file which I'll also back up into a separate location - presumably in case anything  goes wrong with the resync and I have to start again

There is no conf file. Should there be? My wallet version is v1.2.0.0-adgr

Thanks for your help.
