Bad_pool_caller error with laptop running on battery

[Guest]

Hey,

I recently installed Vista RC1 on my dell inspiron 6400 (Australian Model)
Laptop. It has decent specs with and:

ATI x1400 video card,
core2 duo 2GHz processor,
1 gig ram

I installed Vista with the power cable plugged in and everything went fine.
After it was installed still everything was fine. I then wanted to move my
laptop, so i unplugged the power adaptop (while vista was still running) and
attempted to move it. I instantly got a 'Bad_Pool_Caller' blue screen error.
So after restarting without the the cable plugged in i got the same error.
I figured there must be a problem running on pure battery. So i plugged the
cable back in and restared again...same error. I noticed the laptop does not
recognise the cable is in, but still recharges the battery.

I started windows in safe mode with networking and here i am now, its
running fine in safe mode.

If anyone could help me it would be Greatly appreciated.

I have the same laptop and can't say I've had this problem. I can't get vista
to wake from standby but otherwise I haven't had any blue screens.

Do you have any other hardware that might be a little different? Blue tooth
or WLAN maybe?

Hey, nah it was an error with Vista that didnt work with the dell BIOS, which
i managed to get around by disableing speedstep in the BIOS, you probably
dont have this problem, either because you dont have speedstep enable, or
because you have the new build, which they fixed the issue in. So anyway, it
all works fine now, with speedstep enabled. Thanks anyway

Yup,
Definitely was a Vista error.
no problems in build 5744-same bios as before.

e1505; T2500; x1400 !
