Bad_Pool_Caller

[starcly]

Im getting the error Bad_Pool_Caller

then Stop:0x000000c2 (0x00000043, xcd145000, 0x00000000, 0x00000000

It will not allow anything, I cannot use safe mode or the last known good configeration. Nothing will work.

Any information will be helpful....

Also there is a box that appears after the blue screen disapears that says...

Dsub
video input
no signal

thanks

Get yourself a bootable memory tester and check your memory for errors. You can get one here:

This would be a good place to start.

Did you know Microsoft has a free one. You create a boot CD and run it. I tried it and it works rather well.
