Subject: [PCBUILD] BAD_POOL_CALLER


Hello List!

This is a new message to me on a BSOD in Windows XP PRO:
BAD_POOL_CALLER

One of my customers called me about it, and says she gets it when she
tries to delete the XP Pro partition using the XP CD, so she can make a
new one and re-install the OS.

It also happens if she tried to use the R option to recover the OS.

Any one have a clue?

Equipment:
Asrock main board GE-PRo2 w/VAL
Celeron 2400
378M ram
2 hdd's
1 cd-rom
1 cd burner

My recommendation was to just have the OS drive and 1 cd hooked up to do
the reinstall and add the other two drives after
Xp is reloaded and updated


Thanks and have a Great Day!

Joe Lore
