Bad Pool Caller Error Message
0xC2, BAD_BOOL_CALLER blue-screen indicates failed or failing RAM (random access memory) in your computer.You can easily test the pc error bad pool caller memory in your computer with the built-in memory tester built into Windows. Instructions below.The good news is RAM is relatively inexpensive and very easy to replace.In my case, the computer was http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_vista-windows_install/blue-screen-with-error-badpoolcaller-how-do-i-fix/a20a2ff6-96ce-4da1-86c1-ff4a0f909c97 running Windows Server 2003. However any modern version of Microsoft Windows including Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8 can experience this problem.The specifics of the fault were 0xC2 (0x00000007, 0x00001153, …).Rebooting the computer caused a chkdsk and then the system came up…and promptly blue screened again.According to this doc page on microsoft.com, the 0x07 parameter indicates “Attempt to http://ceklog.kindel.com/2004/05/26/stop-0xc2-aka-bad-pool-caller-blue-screen-and-bad-memory/ free a memory pool that was already freed.” Further Google Bing searches indicated that this type of error is usually due to a faulty device driver. In fact, this KB Article shows how to debug the memory dump file to determine the faulty driver.Booting the system into safemode resulted in a memory write fault in explorer.exe.I haven't touched the software on this system for weeks, so I strongly suspected some sort of memory failure. So a quick Google Bing search for “memory tester” came up with Memtest86. Within minutes I had burned a bootable CD with Memtest86 3.1a on it, booted the CD in the system, and saw mucho memory errors fly across the screen!I powered down the system, removed all 3 DIMMs (512MB each), and plugged one in, restarted the system and Memtest started. Kabang! Error city.So I took that DIMM out and tried the next one. No errors. Same with the 3rd.I put the 2 DIMMs that tested OK in the system and rebooted into W2K3. The system is now running fine. This box doesn't really need 1.5GB of memory s

RAM: 4GB OS: windows vista 32-bit home premium SP2 ive done all updates from windows update, and have no clue as to where to get any driver updates. but if someone at least could read the dump files ive attached, and maybe tell me where to start looking, then im sure i might be able to find that bit of thing.
