Hi Friends..
This is my first post on this forum and I must say my knowledge of troubleshooting Windows is really very basic. I have reading your posts on this forum and found them really very helpful.
Since the last 10 days or so, I am facing this serious trouble where my laptop restarts with a blue screen message: BAD_POOL_CALLER 0x000000C2. In the Event Viewer, I am getting the System Errors with the Event Id 1003 and category (102). It happens quite randomly, but its particularly severe when system is under load. But then, I see it when I leave the system idle and finds it restarted on coming back. I have a Sony VAIO Laptop with Windows XP Media Centre installed. The trouble is I bought the laptop in US and I don't have an international warranty to get support from Sony as I am not in US now. I am attaching recent minidump files. Plz analyze them amd let me know what the real culprit may be.
Also plz let me know is it Ok if I download all the originally installed drivers for my model from the Sony site and reload Windows XP professional on my
laptop as I don't have media available for Windows XP Professional.
Thanks
