    Bad Pool Header BSOD


    Hey everyone,

    I've been having issues with this computer for a couple months now. Taken in to IT at my school, they eventually reformatted the computer because of frequent BSOD problems. It used to happen whenever I would have a lot of images on the computer (I.E. every time I would google image search the word "green") The blue screen would then pop up and I wouldn't have time to read what the cause was. After reformatting it began to blue screen infrequently again and now, any time I go to google maps it blue screens. The new cause every time is "Bad Pool Header".

    Attached is the info given from "System" and "Minidump" diagnosis of SF Diagnostic Tool.

    Let me know if I need to provide any more information. I have no clue what to do and am stumped - even IT is stumped (lol). I would love to be able to use this computer again without worrying if it's going to BSOD at any moment.

    Thanks in advance,
    Dan

    I guess if I actually read your post the first time I wouldn't have asked that question. I tried to get it to blue screen last night and was unsuccessful, I'll post again if I have fixed the problem or I encounter another crash. Thanks for the help so far!
