mine works, even my rigs powered with conventional disks.
try nuking your chaindata and resync with --fast.
some of the block with malicious calculations refer back to previous blocks to crunch more data. limiting the bulk of old blocks to headers only curbs the amount of erroneous calculations needed to process (and sync) a block.

would you be so kind and give a step by step list ?
Go to directory where your geth is
Enter geth --fast
I am not sure but you probably should start from zero so you should delete old chain data (blocks).. search for removedb
ok thank you, i will try this and give feedback couse i think there are otheres with the same problem
and for info me os is win7
geth mist 0.8.6
Thank you too, have also massive problems to get the mist client synced, will give it a try.
31+ millions and there are huge chances that it will get error messages while syncing. I had encountered these error messages at 15 million mark. Then you have to start all over again. After weeks of trying to sync I finally gave up. This whole situation is just nerve wracking. I have used myetherwallet to send the funds to an exchange and have ordered ledger nano s where I will transfer my ether funds when I get it.
I love ether, I love bitcoin as well. I won't give up on ethereum, but I can't lose my nerves on syncing issues no more. Life is more precious than that!
my problem is i do this for a friend.
he didnt update his ether wallet for a long time
its predaofork
how do i use myetherwallet ?
could you help with a step by step advice ?
1. go to myetherwallet
2. go to send ether
3. check keystore file
4. select your wallet file (that's your private key that you can find it in the keystore folder)
5. enter the password and unlock your funds
6. send to the address you want
Just consider this address as compromised, move all your funds somewhere else and don't ever use it. I was shaking my ass off while doing this, as just a thought came to my mind what if myetherwallet is compomised, but I have done it without any problems.
the coins i have to move belong to a friend
the coins are nto splited yet
did you move yours to polo ? or another exchange ?
I've had no issues syncing or making transactions from my wallet since 0.8.6. And I know there are many others, even in this thread who are able to as well. Perhaps try another wallet software, such as myetherwallet?
