I use readyboost on my pc because it improves the speed of some the games I play (Battlefield 4, in particular). I have been using a 16 Gb. USB Flash drive since 2010 without any problem. But I recently added a 32 Gb. XD (SD) card to use for readyboost. I can access the card fine, and chkdsk says there are no errors, but since I have started using the card, I keep getting random 0x19 BSOD stop errors. the parameter is 0x21. I do not know what to do next or why readyboost is causing this error. it goes away when I stop using the 32Gb card. the full error is:
The computer has rebooted from a bugcheck. The bugcheck was: 0x00000019 (0x0000000000000021, 0xfffffa8010f19000, 0x0000000000001030, 0xb03c3740a81a7de7). A dump was saved in: C:\windows\Minidump\081814-32292-01.dmp. Report Id: 081814-32292-01.
I suspect readyboost is the cause of the issue, because the only difference in conditions between when it does and it does not happen is, is the use of the 32Gb card. I know that there is a 32Gb limit to the size of the memory card I can use. but using the max size should not be causing any issues
Locked Question. This question was migrated from the Microsoft Support Community. You can vote on whether it's helpful, but you can't add comments or replies or follow the question.
although I am seeing the error message talked about for the hotfix, the hotfix says it is not applicable am assuming this is because the hotfix is not for win7 SP1. I did use the memory dump diagnostic link at the top of the hotfix page though, so maybe, just maybe, something will come of that
Is this "HOTFIX" applicable to your computer?
Stop error message when you retrieve WMI connection statistics for iSCSI after you change the iSCSI configurations on a computer that is running Windows Server 2008 R2 or Windows 7: "0x00000019 BAD_POOL_HEADER"
it looks like we will have to solve the Bad_Pool_Header bsod issue before I can even attempt to do a repair install. the computer gives a 0x19 error part way through the gathering settings portion of the repair install. this has happened each time I tried to run windows setup
O.K. thanks. I will try creating a windows setup disc. On another note, when I was searching google about windows 7 ultimate the usual stupid illegal stuff came up, but that not what concerns me. the product key that is used on my PC showed up in the google preview text for on of the links. so I tried googling just my product key, and many, many pages were found listing my product key. I don't know how it got out into the wild, but this concerns me greatly. as I understand it, M$ does a pretty good job of blocking leaked keys. does this mean I will not be able to re activate windows if I do a repair install?
after finishing my last message, I got up to use the bathroom, I was only gone a few minutes, but when I got back, there was yet another Bad_Pool_Header bsod waiting for me.
I am beginning to wonder if I should just reinstall windows. unfortunately, I do not own a windows 7 OS install CD, so a repair install is out. My only option is a factory restore. I miss the days when owning a windows license meant you had an OS install disc. it really irritates me that if want repair install capability I will have to pay for a second windows 7 ultimate licenese
You can create a repair installation disc, by following the instructions here:
