When playing games via steam I occasionally get a crash followed by the error message.
failed to lock vertex buffer in cmesh dx8
According to the FAQ on steam this is caused by a lack of paged pool memory which is reserved for apps like direct3d.
To get round this issue its recommended that you remove a line form the boot.ini which unlocks the page pool memory. The line is /3GB /Userva=2900
Does anyone know where this line is in windows 7 or how I can unlock the paged pool memory as I'm finding the crashes are starting to interfere with my enjoyment of gaming.
i recently made a thread in regards to my blue screens and i will now upload more of the minidumps. they generally occur when i am on chrome and watching a Internet video. i just received one then in regards to memory_management and no reason was shown.
I just bought my new laptop 1 month ago, but BSOD occurred for many times.Window 7 Home Premium

Acer Aspire 4740G. 2 years old. Last 1-2 weeks constant BSOD as per title, and random freezing up, forcing restart. On restart, random issues pop-up e.g. "Windows explorer is not working", "Login services not working (causes me to be logged into a new profile, all settings, icons, wallpaper gone)". The system has run the Memory Diagnostics test. Extracting from the Event Viewer, the results are as follows:
My friend has a lenovo thinkpad type 0578 with windows 7. He has been getting the page in non paged area blue screen of death. He tried doing a system restore, memory test, booting with last known good configuration, safe mode, etc. Now he is unable to open windows what-so-ever. In my limited research, I have found that it could possibly be a hardware issue with RAM. I am wondering if there is anything we can do to save the computer or get it running again or what to do at this point.
I have done everything I can to figure this out and I can't seem to. The RAM has no errors on MEMtest x 3; I have re-installed windows and I am getting the same error. Hardware or software?

This error started when I was gaming i dunno how to post batch reports but I ran memtest86+ and found 1 of my 2gig sticks was faulty and i pulled it. I thought this would solve the prob but... I also ran dskchk and it fixed a few threads. I can get online and watch shows or movies but I can't play my favorite games. Also sometimes my ssd won't recognise in the system.
I've been getting the BSOD "Page fault in non paged area" a few times every day on my laptop and I don't have a clue why. I've had this laptop for around a year, and it has only just happened once I've got to university. I haven't changed any hardware or installed any new software recently and the only thing I can think of that has changed is that I am using my accommodation's wired internet - but I don't know whether that could cause this or not.

when i installed windows 7 32-bit everything worked fine for 2-3 days then i started getting bsod's, then installed windows 7 64-bit and after 3 days again bsod, when i start the pc. after loging in bsod appears, and pc restarts after that everything works fine.... i also did run a memtest for 11hrs not a single error found.
I just got a BSOD. I think it's about my memory or hard drive. I have attached the required files.When the crash happened I was streaming from netflix using Firefox, working in Word, Outlook was also open.This time it created the minidump file. Code: Is Windows 7 . . . - 64 bit - the original installed OS on the system? Yes - an OEM or full retail version? TechNet download - What is the age of system (hardware)? 2 years - What is the age of OS installation (have you re-installed the OS?) May 2011
I have a computer as described in my profile and ive had it for about a year now. about 6 months ago i occasionally got BSOD and ignored it Then i upgraded the ram to 16gb (was origionally 6gb) and it was great (ran so smooth) but recently ive been getting this BSOD more and more frequent and now the pc is quite unuseable.
i searched up online and found that it could be software, ram or hardrive most probably so first i tried a factory restore and still got bsod and freezes then i tried factory restore once more... no luck then i downloaded a home premium iso installed that and it appeared to be working then that started doing it.
next i tried Ram first i downgraded it to 8gb then swapped it back to the 6gb it came with none of this helped
now i think it must be the harddrive or something wrong with the motherboard. since i cant use it atm im quite ****** off (Ps:the blue screen error message is "Page fault in non paged area" every time)
I constantly bsod on reboot. Yesterday I took out my graphics card because i was selling it in an old computer. It was a ati 4770. I threw in an old xfx 8500 gt because my motherboard doesnt have an internal gfx. It ran for about an hour or so and then i started getting this BSOD. Not thinking I assummed it had something to do with the old card going bad. Today i went and bought a new one to through in and I am still receiveing the same issue.
From what I can tell its a modem related error, but i physically removed the delphi d40 modem and reformatted, only to occasionally still have the same error (just not as often)
now it only happens while running utorrent.
last time i had this error i made an attempt to DL current drivers for everything w/ driver genius pro. once i installed the program and ran it w/ all the new drivers it worked flawlessly for about a week (no BSOD crashes) but then suddenly they started occurring every hour while operating utorrent and certain websites.
im not at that PC right now but ill be sure to post the exact error message along with the model number of the laptop to see if anyone else is experiencing this.
any ideas in the mean time?
im assuming its due to gateway not rushing to add windows 7 support to certain pieces of hardware, allowing pretty much everything i have right now to be work flawlessly only w/ vista.
One of the features that I love about Windows Home Server is the drive pool. No matter how many physical hard drives there are WHS just sees C: and D:. Running out of storage? Just throw in another hard drive.
On my 7 machine I already need to add a hard drive for storage. Is there an elegant method to be able to use that additional hard drive with my libraries so that all new files are saved to the new drive but when I open the library I see all the locations on both the C: and D: drives in one window?
last night before I shut my pc down I was fiddling with windows updates. all I did was make sure that it was set to not install anything automatically and ask me before it does anything. Then oddly enough when I shut down it said it was installing windows updates yet I did not see any updates ready to install before I shut down so I was very confused. I let it do its thing and then it finally shut down. Now when I start the pc today I get a blue screen of death that says pagefault_in_non_paged_area when Windows was finalizing the update install..it rebooted again, tried once more to finalize updates and got another bsod. I rebooted into safe mode at next reboot and it said it was uninstalling the updates because windows failed to load. It restarted normally and it said it was uninstalling and then bsod again. This time when I started up the system repair option came on. I let it do its thing but the issue couldnt be auto fixed it said. I clicked the details and there was signature 07 saying BadDriver. The details are sketchy from here because im having a hard time remembering them, but it let me go into system recovery so i chose to roll back to the time where it showed there was a windows update installed at like 1AM(there was not however, i have no clue why it said this). It wasnt able to roll back to that point and let me choose another. I instead chose to run the memory diagnostics. Windows rebooted and stuck on my bios splash screen. i restarted and it stuck once again.
I have a Gigabyte P43 MB. I cannot successfully install Windows 7 or WinXP.It has been giving me different BSODs and getting to different parts of the install before it BSODs. returned it to Gigabyte and they say they could find no problem.Now I get the same thing except it only gets to load files and never gets into startup.I get 0A, 24, 19, C2 BSODs..I have the MB sitting on my bench now, but when I first fully installed it into a case it did the same thing.I have tried this with 2 CPUs, 2 Graphic cards, 2 PSUs, 2 HDDs, and memory right out of my P35 MB. All of the components run fine on the P35 MB.I can boot to Hiren's disc, I can run memory test, I can find no problems - but I can't Install OS.
I have just built a new computer with the following specs:
When gaming on the computer it will crash and a BSOD will come up saying Bad Pool Caller. Or just a blue screen of death saying there is a problem with your video card. I have reinstalled the drivers for this card and used older drivers however the problem still continues. I have now put my Gigabyte GTX260 in this sytem above and all seems well at the moment plays games and passes tests with 3DMark 06.
Does this sound like a driver or a faulty video card problem??
Also one other thing I have noticed about the disk drive is the tray that opens seems to open a bit then open fully has anyone else experienced this problem before?

I got a new desktop PC. It works fine, but on each startup it gives me the line "Verifying DMI Pool Data". It seems to be part of the normal booting process, but my other PC never does that, and when I researched it on the web I read that it might be a serious error.
The specs of the new PC are these:
Intel Core i7 950 @ 3.07GHz 6GB RAM Windows 7 Professional 64bit
I have a 4g sprint card and a DSL connection. I want to pool them together. Each is currently at around 6megs I want to be able to get 12 megs combined. How do I do this?Also unrelated, anyone aware of a way to plug a 4g sprint card into an IPhone (tried searching for adapters couldn't find it)
after since a few days, my computer has been getting Bad_Pool_Caller BSOD most of the time after i start to resume back my computer after hibernating it.

I see other forums stating about needing a minidumps file, cause the BSOD is really interrupting my lessons in school because I'm using laptop most of the time.
computer keeps getting bad pool caller bsod i think it may be utorrent causing it but i get it some times by going on youtubnot very good with computers i will attatch a dump file
This has been going on for a few months now and I have tried a number of things. At first I thought it just seemed to happen randomly when I used the internet that I would open a new page and just get an immediate blue screen with the message "BAD_POOL_CALLER".
now when I switch on the pc, after the white screen and before the boot appear a black screen that say verifying dmi pool data and it stop to this.
For the first time I change the boot priority and boot from the another hard disk and it start. But now when I Boot from any hard disk the message is always the same...
I can boot without any problem from dvd drive or another device. Any solution?
I pressed something at the start of login once, something like y/n sata to dmos or something im not really sure but i pressed yes and now im getting verifying dmi pool data, update new data to dmi! aswell as a super quick blue screen flash and nothing working,
I have XP installed in my PC.I tried to install Windows 7 by mounting the Windows 7 image as virtual drive.After copying the files the PC reboots.After this reboot my PC is stuck at "Verifying DMI Pool Data".Nothing happens after that.Then I installed my XP again. Please give me a solution to this problem.
