Please can anyone give me any suggestion about this problem?

My computer keeps re-booting always showing the same error:
BAD POOL CALLER
Error code: 0x000000C2

I have read this error is mostly due to video card.

The error occurs when:
1)I intensly use the resources with video encoding using Adobe Premiere
(always).
2)I burn a CD (most of the times)
3)When I leave the computer and the screen saver starts (rarely). Stan-by is
disabled.
4) Using Fresh-Diagnose to benchmark the HDD (90% of times).

My computer is this way configured:
Motherboard: Asus P4S533-E
CPU: P4 northwood 2.0GHz
RAM: 2x512 DIMM
Video card: ATI RADEON 9100 Atlantis
DVD Player: JLMS DVD-Rom LTD166-S
CD burner: PHILIPS CDD6911
two hard disk drive:
MAXTOR 41GB primary master with OS and programs
HITACHI 41GB primary slave with data
OS: XP Professional

I have tried the following troubleshooting and the problem occured at every
attempt:
Completely unistalled video card
Removed one and then the other memory bank and changed slots
Changed IDE cable

I have benchmarked the memory banks with DOCMEM and the HDD with the DOS
programs supplied by the respective companies and they all resulted OK.

I finally monitored for an hour the voltages supplied by the motherboard
with ASUS Probe and they were definitely stable with the exception of the
3.3V supply that decreased from 2.62V to 2.48V for 5 seconds.

Sorry for the lenght of the explanation but I wanted to be complete.

If anyone has any other suggestion before trying replacing one by one the
motherboard, the CPU and i don't know what else, please
HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELP
Thank you very much
jacopo

This error is not specific to video cards, and not likely is caused by bad RAM,
CPU and so on.
Most likely, it is a buggy driver or virus/malware.
Sorry it's all I can tell from your description...

Are you sure about those figures? The 3.3V supply should be putting out
about 3.3 volts. Your problems sound like your power supply might be
marginal. You might try a different one to see if that fixes the problems.

Thank you very much for your advice.
No virus though, because i have a well update Norton Internet Security, plus
Spyware Blaster plus Adaware.
Geez you use more resources to keep malwares away than for working.
Have a nice day.

Sorry Michael, I mistyped the voltages.
They are 3.264 and for five seconds 3.248.
Anyway I have a spare PSU to try and I will do it.
Thank you for the advice.
