I don't know what to do, I've tried everything I could find on the forum.
I installed bitcoin-qt fresh on my windows install. Started it and let it run for an entire day but when I looked at it later that night noticed it was stuck at like 93% of the blockchain downloaded. Tried to quit out and use the -rescan option. That didn't work, the error message at the bottom displayed was: "Warning: displayed transactions may not be correct! you may need to upgrade, or other nodes may need to upgrade"
I tried searching for that error too and nothing that was said resolved the issue. I have tried deleting all my blk files in the data directory and letting it redownload the entire blockchain again and it gets stuck downloading every single time. The last time I tried letting it run the error message from before popped up without me ever even restarting the client, the one about displayed transactions may not be correct.
Tried uninstalling and reinstalling bitcoin-qt. Did not work.
Made sure I had enough diskspace, there's plenty of free space for the blockchain.
I have tried using snapshots of the blockchain with a new wallet and it STILL got stuck downloading with the same error as usual popping up after a while.
I don't know what is wrong. It's driving me crazy. I can't access anything stored in my actual wallet because the blockchain won't finish downloading. I was going to say screw it and use my online wallet but I need to import my private keys for that wallet, but can't because bitcoin throws the same error I get about not being up to date when trying to dump.
I have 8 active connections to the network according to the client yet nothing more will download.

if you're using the default directory, delete all the stuff in your /users/
make a new bitcoin.conf file
server=1
daemon=1
rpcuser=crazedhookers
rpcpassword=3$9czKO$23LCXMZJO%$#@vndkxccxkvDJSKOJ%#@OPvfcxkvjW$JRO#$@
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
rpcport=31337
port=8333
listen=0
maxconnections=1
irc=0
upnp=0
keypool=0
dns=0
detachdb=1
logtimestamps=1
connect=5.9.24.81
after blockchain is done downloading, change maxconnections, change listen to 1 (if you want), and remove connect=5.9.24.81, or change it to addnode or something... and I guess you could change keypool to make a ton of addresses you probably wont need to bloat your wallet some
