from yesterday i am facing random BSOD between my work and play. according to what i could get from the BSOD the errors were about bad_pool_caller, bad_pool_header, win32k.sys etc
i have not much idea about this and i dont want to do a reinstall of windows so i am wondering if there is a fix for this problem. i have uploaded the dump in a zip format as i see most experts requesting for it.
thanks in advance.

Scroll down to the Utilities category, then scroll down to the "ATK0110 driver for WindowsXP/Vista/Windows 7 32&64-bit" (it's about the 12th item down).
Download and install it.
Go to C:\Windows\System32\drivers to check and make sure that the ASACPI.sys file is date stamped from 2009 or 2010 (NOT 2005).
2-SPTD.SYS is also a large cause, used by daemon tools and alcohol120
Remove any CD virtualization programs such as Daemon Tools and Alcohol 120%.
They use a driver, found in your dmp, sptd.sys, that is notorious for causing BSODs.
Use this SPTD uninstaller when you're done:DuplexSecure - Downloads
You can use MagicDisc as an alternative.

Well i uninstalled daemon tools and was just going to download the drivers but the bsod showed up and my pc wont give a display anymore. Also i want to tell that i have xp in dualboot so i was using it yesterday to check whether xp is also facing the error and yes xp too gave the bsod.
Is it a hardware error? I am using 2gb kingston ddr2 and 1 gb hcl ram
and my gpu is hd 5750 asus formula card.
i installed the atk0110 driver although its not of my motherboard, also i cant find the sptd uninstaller on the site you have given bro. i fixed the RAMs now i am getting display on my computer. i will report if i am still getting any errors.
no use i am still facing the bluescreen. sometimes my pc restarts and then stop giving any display, all fans and lights are on but no display on monitor. what should i do?
i have attached a new dump file

I would remove it to test,
