WIndows 8 BSOD XBMC

I am receiving frequent BSODs in Windows 8, which are either BAD_POOL_HEADER or DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION but it only happens after XBMC has been running.

WhoCrashed and told me this:

More often memory corruption happens because of software errors in buggy drivers, not because of faulty RAM modules. The crash took place in a standard Microsoft module. Your system configuration may be incorrect. Possibly this problem is caused by another driver on your system that cannot be identified at this time.

A third party driver was identified as the probable root cause of this system error. It is suggested you look for an update for the following driver: nvlddmkm.sys (NVIDIA Windows Kernel Mode Driver, Version 320.49 , NVIDIA Corporation).

I would report the issue to the developer of XBMC. The BAD_POOL_HEADER is likely caused by bad drivers or a hdd about to fail. Without additional details its unlikely the information you posted is very helpful. It doesn't even tell you what cause the crash. – Ramhound – 2013-07-22T13:58:35.577

upload the .dmp files so that we can look at them with WinDbg – magicandre1981 – 2013-07-22T18:29:53.967

use a different hoster which is completely free. I don't register just to download the dumps. – magicandre1981 – 2013-07-23T18:29:06.763

Sorry didnt know you had to sign up to download try this http://www.filedropper.com/dmp

– user239840 – 2013-07-24T03:57:58.660

I also can't download from there. Use zippyshare.com, putlocker.com or mediafire.com – magicandre1981 – 2013-07-24T04:16:27.340

You get several different crashes.

2 dumps show a DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION bugcheck:

In this case update the driver networx.sys

The other dumps show a BAD_POOL_HEADER crash:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff557389%28v=vs.85%29.aspx

The last driver which accesses data is the nVIDIA GPU driver. But it doesn't mean that this driver causes the crashes.

BAD_POOL_HEADER (19)
The pool is already corrupt at the time of the current request.
This may or may not be due to the caller.
The internal pool links must be walked to figure out a possible cause of
the problem, and then special pool applied to the suspect tags or the driver
verifier to a suspect driver.

You have to activate driver verifier:

and upload the new memory.dmp which is generated.
