*** STOP 0x000000C2 BAD_POOL_CALLER hotfix?

[Guest Trond Ruud]

My Win2000 pro crashes at irregular intervals, and I get a BSD with

the message : *** STOP 0x000000C2 BAD_POOL_CALLER

 

Searching kb for a cure I found this kb article (820765) :

 

RESOLUTION

Hotfix information

A supported hotfix is now available from Microsoft, but it is only intended

to correct the problem that this article describes. Apply it only to systems

that are experiencing this specific problem.

 

To resolve this problem, contact Microsoft Product Support Services to

obtain the hotfix. For a complete list of Microsoft Product Support Services

telephone numbers and information about support costs, visit the following

Microsoft Web site:

http://support.microsoft.com/contactus/?ws=support

(http://support.microsoft.com/contactus/?ws=support)

 

But the link target offered little help other than a very long list of new

links to different support options which, when followed finally sent me back

to the

same kb article: (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/820765/en-us)

 

So I wondered if anybody here knows where the described hotfix is to be

found?

Hello Trond,

 

You got the link to the support page, so search for support in your region

and PHONE them. You will not find the patch on the MS pages directly like

stated in the article. If you have the described problem you get the hotfix

for free.

 

Best regards
