Hi. I am having the dreaded BSOD with bad_pool_header error message. I have built a few systems and this is the first time I have seen this. Having this on a new install with XP Pro SP2 not 64 series. Computer specs are .....ASUS A8N32 SLI Delux, 939 Opteron 170 cpu three sticks of 1 gig corsair memory and a Maxtor 500 gig sata II HD 650 watt thermaltake power supply BFG PCIe 8800gt oc video card.....Any and all help is greatly welcomed.

Re: Bad_pool_header on new install
Try reformatting the hard drive and start all over again.
If problems persist, its maybe the Windows XP 32 bit has a 2GB RAM limitation. -
Re: Bad_pool_header on new install
Thank You for your wisdom. Reformatted and removed a stick of memory and now it runs great. Is Vista worth getting yet or should I go with XPpro 64? I heard about all the bugs with Vista. Thanks again.Comment

Re: Bad_pool_header on new install
all OS have bugs, vista is the first one that seems to fix itself.
personally I quiet like vista but you need some grunt to run it, xp64 will handle the extra ram & run better the xp32 (newer kernal)Comment
