I know my computer has no hardware issues, but just for shits and giggles I opened up a totally fresh bitcoin wallet using bitcoin core on a machine that has never run bitcoin before. It too gets errors and fails before getting fully synced up. This is version .13.2. I do see that there is a version .14, i'll try that and see if I have any better luck.

Just writing some code
That it continuously fails is usually indicative of hardware issues. Bitcoin Core is very hardware intensive and can cause issues with RAM or the hard drive to become noticeable. Try running some hardware diagnostics on your computer to see if it finds any issues with your computer.

So back in November, my bitcoin walled (just the basic bitcoin core) give me an error that the chain was corrupt or something along those lines. I thought, 'no big deal, just re-sync up'. But every time I've tried to get it to re-sync, it gets so far then fails again. Even if I start with a totally fresh wallet and no app prefs etc. This is on the latest version of OS X.

Has anyone else had this problem lately? Is it a known issue or is it just me? Any ideas how to fix it?
