I woke up this morning to a Blue screen. It said Bad_Load_Header, didn't list any file names. Does anyone know what could have cause this?. This is a new machine Dell XPS 8100. Thanks Bob Eyster Windows 7 Pro 64 Bit

Please copy the dmp files from the folder C:\Windows\Minidump first to your desktop, zip all dmp into 1 zip file and upload the zip file to your Skydrive [1] and post a link here, so that I can look at the dumps with the debugger and to to see the cause of the crash.

Does the crash also happen without McAfee? BAD_POOL_HEADER (19) The pool is already corrupt at the time of the current request. This may or may not be due to the caller. The internal pool links must be walked to figure out a possible cause of the problem, and then special pool applied to the suspect tags or the driver verifier to a suspect driver. Arguments: Arg1: 0000000000000020, a pool block header size is corrupt. please enable Driver verifier to get the causing driver: http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/101379-driver-verifier-enable-disable.html when you get a new BSOD, boot to safe mode, disable driver verifier, reboot to normal mode and upload the newest dmp file from the folder C:\Windows\Minidump to your public SkyDrive [1] folder and post the link here.

Hi Andre, Don't know about the McAfee, this is the first BS that I'm aware of sense I got the PC, and hope it's the last <g>. I have enable the Driver Verifier and its taken my PC from a Intel Core i5 650 3.20GHz computer to a 286 PC. Remember the 286's??? I don't know how long I can put up with this. My computer use to boot up in 35 sec +/-, now it takes over a minute, close to 2 minutes. Thanks Bob Eyster Windows 7 Pro 64 Bit

My keyboard was doing funny thing and could not type letter. The F key worked, Tab, Shift, Ctrl, and Alt key worked but the Alfa keys didn't. I did a RestorePoint and that didn't work. I have a wireless key board and looked for a reset button but did not fine one, replaced the battery's and that didn't work. Before I copied the memory bump file I did and Image Restore and lost them, this didn't work either. The key board was still screwed up. I was at wits end by this point and ready to sling the key board out the windows when I notice an Off/On switch on the side of the Key board. I turned it off and back on and everything is working OK. In the mean time I did find out what was wrong. You were right in assuming McAfee, the driver "mfewfpk.sys" (virus, firewall driver) was conflicting with a program call SystemSuite 10 by Avanquest. I have been using this program sense version 6, McAfee came with my computer, it has been un-installed. So far no BS, knock on wood. Thanks Bob Eyster Windows 7 Pro 64 Bit
