BSOD BAD_POOL_HEADER

[vcsrave]

Hi,

I am writing a usb bus driver (wdm driver) , once I install my driver I
am getting blue screens at very random times, sometime in the middle of
transactions and sometime even after my driver got unloaded. But all
the BSODs shows the same bug check code (0x19). I have installed the
driver in Windows XP sp2.

Any suggestions will be appreciated.

Thanks.

Why not a KMDF driver, this close to Vista?

 

[MajorTom]

Does this bugcheck (0x19) happens to you always with the same stack?

 

[vcsrave]

I don't know whether KMDF is friendly for writting bus drivers

 

[vcsrave]

Yes, I always appears with the same stack

Does this bugcheck (0x19) happens to you always with the same stack?

absolutely it is. it is one of the things that it makes super easy to
implement.
