My system crashed with this error message:-
BAD_POOL_CALLER
does anyone know what caused it?
Thanks... Steve
 
Hi Steve,

A bug in a driver is the most likely cause, but it could also be a bit of
software you have installed. This article can help you debug it if you wish
to try it:

But it is probably easier to identify the problem, then look for an update
or patch. This can help with that:
