This error usually indicates that one or more files which Bitcoin relies upon have become corrupted. A good first troubleshooting step would be to delete everything **except wallet.dat** in your %appdata%\Roaming\Bitcoin folder and allow Bitcoin to re-download the block chain. It would also be helpful to know if your installation has ever worked and if so, what has changed.

Tried redownloading the block chain, it didn't work. It used to work however, i have both sent and recieved coins before. The only difference I can think of is that i forgot my pass, and did several failed attempts (like 150) before i got it right, i had forgotten the last two digits

Okay, tried switching pass now as well - got the same error. So the problem seems to be connected to the password and the lock on the wallet

If your wallet has become corrupted you might be able to recover the private keys using something like pywallet and then restore them to a blank wallet.
