I have a lot of experience with this over the last few months https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=834387.new#new
If I hit yes, it doesn't appear to do anything. Ive left it for a few days, and using "top" doesn't seem to show bitcoind.
Only way I can *fix* it is to use bitcoind -reindex.

I'm getting this error when I try to open Bitcoin-QT. Last time I've tried to set up Armory but electricity was cut.
I've download all blocks nearly 2 months. So please suggest me a solution or I'll throw this computer out to the window.

Try running "bitcoin-qt -rescan", which will reindex the blocks on disk without needing to redownload them. It sounds like something got corrupted when your power went out, so some blocks may not verify properly and will need to be downloaded from the network again. Either way, expect it to take a while, but it should work again afterwards.

If you wana keep bitcoin core running you have to re-download the whole blockchain again no other substitute for that.
You can try other offline wallets like Armory, Multibit or something else.

If it's broken, you can use bootstrap to speed up the download process.Code:

You could also try to use another wallet if you are not mining.
multibit is recommended, even at bitcoin.org.

Your threat to damage your own property does not hasten my reply.
