Constant BAD_POOL_HEADER BSOD after upgrade from Win7 to Windows 10
I have upgraded my Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit system to Windows 10. I have now completed this twice on this PC: first using Windows Update, and secondly (after rolling back to Win7) using the Media Creation Tool.
My problem is that within the first few minutes of start-up I always receive the BSOD BAD_POOL_HEADER.
This primarily occurs around a minute after login, sometimes up to 5 min, but on some occasions has also occurred before the login screen is displayed.
Based on what I've read in other threads I have tried disabling my DVD RW drive and card readers. I've removed all non-essential USB devices along with an el-cheapo USB 3 card I bought years ago and have had some trouble with in the past. I have four 4GB RAM chips installed, all DDR3 1333, but two different brands, so I have also tried removing two of them at a time (leaving remaining two in correctly colour-coded slots), all to no avail.
The problem does not occur when booting into safe mode.
I've included two debug files, one quickly taken under normal boot after only a couple of crashes, and the second taken in safe mode which includes a few more dump files.
This system has been running perfectly well on Windows 7 for six years. I hope someone can point me in the right direction to troubleshoot. Thanks in advance,
Ben
