Stop client. rmdir the work folder and del the queue.dat file. Start client.

Make sure to always start the client with the -smp x switch, or the client will download a single threaded core_78 work unit.

Also, be sure the x in -smp x matches the number of cores your CPU has.

There is a history on this error, and reading through this thread may turn up an answer. Sorry, it's many pages long.
