A problem has been detected and Windows has been shut down to prevent damage
to your computer.

The problem seems to be caused by the following file: ntoskrnl.exe

BAD_POOL_HEADER

If this is the first time you've seen this stop error screen,
restart your computer. If this screen appears again, follow
these steps:

Check to make sure any new hardware or software is properly installed.
If this is a new installation, ask your hardware or software manufacturer
for any Windows updates you might need.

If problems continue, disable or remove any newly installed hardware
or software. Disable BIOS memory options such as caching or shadowing.
If you need to use safe mode to remove or disable components, restart
your computer, press F8 to select Advanced Startup Options, and then
select Safe Mode.

ntoskrnl.exe/BAD_Pool_Header/BSOD/Additional Details

Failed to mention in first post that this was the second BDOD after another on 1.29.17. Have posted both BSOD details here to provide additional infor to help diagnose the problem.....It would appear the same culprit is involved in both incidents. Just can't figure out which driver is causing the problem if that is the case. TIA

Diagnostic Test

 DRIVER VERIFIER


   Warning
Please make a backup of your important files and get your rescue media or create one.
Please create a restore point.

Please follow this tutorial to run driver verifier.

Driver verifier stresses your drivers and will crash your pc if any driver fails due to a violation.

Driver verifier should be performed for a max of 48 hours, or when you have a bluescreen, whatever comes first.

If driver verifier has found a violation and you can't get back into windows normally, try to boot into safe mode and reset in safe mode driver verifier, or in the troubleshooting options open command prompt and type verifier /reset.

   Note
Your system will act very sluggishly while driver verifier is enabled, this is normal as your drivers will be being subjected to heavy testing in order to make them crash.

==================================================

Could you please do me a favor and recheck the new crash results...the reason being a bit hesitant to go the driver verifier route.....just not that comfortable trying that...Perhaps if you recheck the 4.24.17 crash you will be able to identify the problem...It would appear all three crashes are caused by the same problem...Thanks for your time.....

The last dump shows that Adguard would be causing issues, the other dump doesn't show possible causes directly.
