So I have an old Toshiba laptop with a home version of windows xp with sp3. I got a BSOD that refers to itself as "BAD_POOL_HEADER". Now I would have just simply googled for this problem, and I did, but it didn't help me. GBAtemp is my only hope left!
What I've tried:
What I've tried:
- Going into safemode and doing a sfc /scannow (I get a bsod when entering safe mode)
- Using a live Windows XP boot cd (It just goes right into installing windows, no options for recovery and such)
- Cleaning my registry with CCLeaner (it didn't help, not to mention I have about 30 seconds until my pc goes BSOD)
- Googling the problem (the results are either commercials for spamware or forum threads that have similar problems, but the solution to them was entering safe mode or using a bootdisk, which didn't work for me)
- Tried memtest + a check with gparted by using a debian live disk, there are no problems with my hdd
- Tried booting through a usb stick with ubuntu on it (so I can copy windows files from a disk onto my pc), didn't work. PC doesnt show any options for booting from USB, only from HDD, Floppy, CD Rom and lan.
