Sending Out An S.O.S to the smart guys out there
or one of the other smart guys.
I am trying to get my Windows miner setup - experimenting that and the Linux versions.
I scoured other threads but didn't see this error occurring in any of them, so I thought I would create one.
I got it all setup according to the instructions here exactly.
Got all the # removed from config.ini - got the account, WIF - active key since active account, etc. All of the common errors I see out there.
Now I get this screen:
It waits for a little while, then it does this:
I have replaced the block file and all that - made sure I quadruple checked all the settings in the post, etc.
What do?
Apparently it is this little bugger:

Make sure you download it. Backup your edited config.ini file somewhere else, then extract this folder and copy over the original in your mining directory.
Replace the config.ini file in the extracted folder with your saved original.
Push Play!!!
IF THAT DOESN'T WORK...
then follow this:
Win+R cmd
then cd "copy directory path from explorer here"
then enter: steemd.exe --replay
That worked instantly!
DONE!!!
