"Dumping physical memory to disk"

[Emera]

I've all of a sudden started having these memory dump attacks from my PC. It's become so bad I can't even log onto Era without it doing it.

Basically, whenever I try to log onto Era, it freezes Graal, waits a couple of seconds and gives me "This programme is not responding", hangs for another 2-3 seconds and my laptop screen comes up with a giant blue screen. It says something about a BAD_POOL_CALLER. It says Dumping physical memory to disk... waits a few seconds then reboots my laptop. I'm not getting this from using any other application. My laptop is pretty bog-standard as far as usability goes but I'm only logging onto a Graal server. If anybody can help me out, I'd greatly appreciate it.

It's a Windows 7 laptop made by ADVENT running service pack one with windows 7 ultimate 32 bit

Can you give us some specs? How much RAM do you have, CPU? What sort of processes are running/taking up RAM? Does this happen if you run your computer in safe mode(press F8 while your laptop is booting)? You could very well be running out of RAM, but it's a matter of what's causing it.

After giving us those details you can run a scan with HiJackThis:

and give us the log.

RAM : 3.00 GB
Processor: Intel Celeron CPU 900 @ 2.20GHz 2.19 GHz

None of the processes seem to be taking up a lot of ram but my physical memory is always at least 30%

What about processes in your task manager(right click taskbar and 'start task manager')?

Try taking a screenshot of all running processes, and make sure the memory column is visible.

Probably won't fix your problem, but with Hijack This! get rid of :
R3 - URLSearchHook: (no name) - {00000000-6E41-4FD3-8538-502F5495E5FC} - (no file)
R3 - URLSearchHook: (no name) - {88c7f2aa-f93f-432c-8f0e-b7d85967a527} - (no file)
O3 - Toolbar: Babylon Toolbar - {98889811-442D-49dd-99D7-DC866BE87DBC} - C:\Program Files\BabylonToolbar\BabylonToolbar\1.5.3.17\Babyl onToolbarTlbr.dll (If you don't actually use anything called Babylon Toolbar)

Also sounds like it could be bad RAM.

Like I said, it's a pretty sub standard laptop that barely does what it's supposed to do D:

Run a memory test:

Windows Vista/7 include it with the bootloader now. If the test shows bad RAM get it replaced.

Make sure your drivers are up to date as well.
