Hey guys,
I was sitting here tonight just surfing the web and I had a crash. The PC went to blue screen and showed that it was dumping files but didn't reboot. I had to manually reboot. It showed Bad_Pool_Caller at the top. From what I've read it looks like something is wrong with the hard drive or RAM...?

Any help is appreciated. Just FYI...I applied some Windows updates 2 days ago. Not sure if it's relevant or not.

No. I just thought it was a completely different symptom because it said "bad_pool_caller" instead of the "irql_not_less_or equal....".

I didn't want to get the two mixed up, I guess.

Well, here's the thing. I am not positive the other BSOD is solved, and I'm worried I now have two problems. Here are the actions I have taken since having the first IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL BSOD.
1) Used the COMODO uninstaller and cleaned the system of that useless program
2) Uninstalled Daemon tools and the cleaner

The original BSOD wasn't happening very often but when this new BAD_POOL_CALLER BSOD occurred it seemed different.
I did attempt to update all of my WiFi drivers bun Windows says they are all up to date. What would the Intel 5100 be for.....my network card? None of them are labeled as Intel 5100.

Thanks for the help. I'll do whatever I can to follow protocol and keep the forums clean and organized, and understand why you'd want to keep it that way.

I had another BSOD tonight. It again was for a BAD_POOL_CALLER. I have enclosed the dump.

Please see the info in the post before this one. At the time of this one I was updating an online game and it crashed. The night before I was running 3 memory extensive programs at once and had no trouble at all. At the time of this crash I only had Firefox running.

Seven forums rocks! Thanks for any and all help guys. I know Windows, but not like you guys do.
