Blue Screen - BAD_POOL_CALLER

[Gamer_T]

Hi guys.

My laptop is about a week old now. I had it from brand new.

It came with Windows 7, but a load of junk was installed with it so I put my own Windows 7 on it.

In the space of a week, I've had this blue screen happen twice.

It seems to happen in Firefox. All's it says is 'BAD_POOL_CALLER'.

Any ideas on what usually causes this?

Cheers

Driver problem possibly check all your drivers are up to date.

C:\WINDOWS\Minidump

Look in there for files created around the time of the crashes, either post them here or email me and I'll take a look.
