Using Armory to run bitcoind on Win7, 64bit. Since last computer restart when Armory tries launching bitcoind, I get the "bitcoind has stopped working" dialog.

I was recommended to post this here vs Armory by IRC, which said bitcoind shouldn't be crashing like this.

We'll need a bit more information than that. What is in debug.log, for starters?

ERROR: DisconnectBlock() : undo data overwriting existing transaction
ERROR: VerifyDB() : *** coin database inconsistencies found (last 5 blocks, 104235 good transactions before that)

That seems to be the problem... Can I just delete the database and let it build a brand new one?

This looks like database corruption. It may be caused by downgrading from 0.9.x code to 0.8.x code, too.

You can run with -reindex to rebuild the database.
