A pool header issue is a problem with Windows memory allocation. Device
driver issues can cause this.
Check in Device Manager and look for a yellow question mark on your CD
Drive. If one exists, check properties and look for any error codes. This
may or may not help you find the problem.
You could try deleting the CD ROM from Device Manager and reboot Windows to
allow it to find it again.
Another thing to try is to test the RAM. Use Memtest86 at
http://www.memtest.org/ to check your RAM to ensure that this is not causing
the problem. You could also try swapping over RAM modules or just running
with one module.
Another possibility I have seen was to do with Norton GoBack. Do you use
this program at all? If so, then update to the latest version and this may
cure the issue.
Hope one of these helps.
