Blue screen at loading premier cs4

Hi,
I know this kind of issue is almost impossible to solve, but anyway.
When I try to start PP CS4 I get a blue screen with message "bad_pool_caller"

    Ok so i got this laptop in a few days ago here are the problems and the things i have tried. This laptop when it came to me did not have a hard drive, so obviously no OS. Upon installing a hard drive then trying to load Yosemite from a USB stick, I turn mac on, sleep light will blink 5 times then boot, Will come to normal gray screen then apple logo, will then load the OS install, but go straight to a blue screen with vertical lines. Tried different hard drive, tried different RAM sizes and speeds, tried different OS, tried CD instead. Have done numerous PRAM and SMC resets. trying Safe mode gets me a panic cpu 4 caller error then restarts. I have tried using a hard drive that had an OS already installed and will go straight to blue screen after loading. I have tried fsck -fy in single user mode. I do get that disk2s3 is write protected in single user mode, but im pretty sure that its the OS disk. I do not see a second hard drive in single user mode but i believe that because its not partitioned yet. Any ideas community?

    Tried doing OS X lion by CD now, and will only get half way through load bar before the apple logo and loading bar disappears and then it will sit at a gray screen.

  • Blue Screen while loading desktop

    HP Pavillion Series P7-1003w
    Windows 7 Home Premium
    About 2 days ago I've started having an issue with my comp (HP Desktop, 8gb Ram, x4 Processor, ATI Video Card), It started when I noticed my Windows Firewall had shut down and would not restart, immediately I assumed a virus/rootkit had sneaked past my Avast! Anti-virus. So I began running scans. My first scan (Full system scan) came back with 38 infected files inside windows temp files folder, all were malware except for 2 Trojan, Avast immediately deleted these files and I restarted comp to see if I could restart the firewall.
    Now about 10 seconds after loading the desktop I get the BSOD. I restarted and ran in safe mode to see if I could asses the issue but nothing worked, I tried running memory diagnostics, system repair (No recovery points found), startup repair, and even ran a CHKDSK but everything came back as fine. So I did a full system restore twice using HP's Built in partition recovery. The computer was fine immediately after restore, but I noticed every time I tried to right-click on something explorer would crash and then restart. The only thing I can think of is a bad video card, but I'd like confirmation/Other options before I throw money at a new one.
    BCCode:   a
    BCP1:   0000000000000010

    OS Version:   6_1_7601
    Service Pack:   1_0
    Product:   768_1
    Now its gotten to the point it wont even load Safe mode, the boot screen comes up but after a few seconds a small line of corruption appears at the top. I need a quick solution to this please, this computer needs to be running at 100% again before 6/11/13.
     Update: I just plugged in mouse, keyboard, and monitor to see if I could pull the product ID from the system properties before it crashed, it worked fine so I zipped up the dump file and plugged in the Ethernet to try and post a link to it here, but as soon as it became connected to the internet it blue screened again, I'm thinking the windows updater is to blame, even though its disabled.

     Hello Erose90,
    I see you’re stating your computer blue screens,is that correct? I will be happy to help you.
    I would like you to try and create a diagnostic disk, this disk can be run outside of the operating system giving the results more clarity.
    This link will show you how to create the disk and run the disk once it has finished. When you open the link scroll down to the sectioned headed “Creating the HP Vision Diagnostic Media”, from there follow the information it provides.
    Try to only have this program opened and running so it will lessen the chance of a possible blue screen during the process.
    Please respond back at your earliest convenience.
    Thanks

  • Macbook Pro 2011 blue screen with loading icon

    I was using my 2011 15 in. (2.0 GHz model) Macbook Pro, when a blue screen popped up for a second or two showing a circular gray loading icon, then disappeared and it looked like I had just logged in. It started to load the dock and desktop icons and my startup programs opened, but it didn't look like it had restarted because it didn't ask for a password, and only lasted a few seconds including the blue screen. At the time it had happened, I was working on a very high poly model in Blender, which might have caused it. I just got this computer, so I really hope there is nothing wrong with it, but I also got a warranty on it, so if there is anything wrong I can bring it in. If anyone knows if this is serious or not, please tell me. Thanks.

    Thanks for your response, and since I submitted this question, the same problem happened again. This time I was playing Left 4 Dead 2 on Steam, so I'm noticing a trend where this problem only occurs when I'm working with 3D graphics, which is basically why I got the Macbook Pro in the first place, thinking it would be good with this sort of thing. Interestingly, though, I first played the game on this computer fine at fairly high graphics settings and got a good, steady fps for about an hour, but the second time, when this crash occured, I had only just started. This has gotten me confused and worried, and I'm wondering if I should bring it in to Apple, and if so, if they can fix it. Any answers would be great. Thanks!

  • Nv4_disp.dll errors blue screen of death photoshop cs4 bridge

    Sometimes, when opening psd files from bridge in cs4 I am getting the Blue Screen of Death and a message stating the cause is nv4_disp.dll errors.   This started occurring a few days ago.
    Environment: XP Pro, nvidia 7900 GS video card, nvidia driver version 6.14.11.9038. [ 190.38].
    Anyone else experience this and has a solution?

    I bet you'll sudennly get this error without doing that to cause it soon aswell. I had a very similar problem with BSoD and Nvidia display drivers on 9800GTX GPU. It started just doing it one day completely out of the blue. Unfortinatly, i'm still not sure what caused it, but it seemed when looking around the web that it was in fact faulty drivers, but not necisarily the graphics card drivers, just a conflict with them for somthing trying to work with them.
    For me, i did everything under the sun and it worked.
    1. Get Spybot Search & Destroy, COMODO antivirus, Windows Live Onecare 30day free trial, and scan your system with each of them. Each one for me found soemthing new which was fairly unsettling.
    2. Re-install GPU drivers, re-install graphics tablet drivers if you have one, because that was thelast thing i had changed since i startd to get them, but it was a good few weeks afterwards, and it didn't fix it doing that anyway, but it may have helped somthing else work properly so just to be safe. Re-install anything you last installed, or remove it if you are willing.
    3. Disk defragment, Disk Cleanup, and run Clean Up Utilities. To help track down other problems, you can also download Regmon for windows made by microsoft: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896652.aspx you can see what your computer is douing in the registery. The other one to download is Filemon, which is the same thing but shows what your computer processes are doing. http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896642.aspx
    Good luck, but presistence in not wanting to re-install windows will overcome it evertually

  • Crashes with dbs dreaded blue screen when loading certain sites -

    Periodically - probably twice a week I load a screen that causes Firefox to crash - I get the dread blue screen so can't get stats although I do see errors when I log back in and bring up firefox.
    You have the right config details.
    Let me know what other info I can send you
    By the way - when I restart Firefox it generally gives me the Oops message and lets me pick whether I want to continue or restart - I restart as if I don't I get blue screen again

    Although turning off java script did help on many websites, it didn't solve the problem on all of them, but that could be the website itself.
    Unfortunately I had to turn java script back on again because most forums or discussion group web sites seem to use it somewhere.
    Only turning it on when required didn't work either because you have to start safari for the change to take effect.
    However, one thing I noticed - and it happens quite consistently - if the download stops (As seen in the status bar at the top), if you the click on the 'stop' and then on the 'reload' button, the site loads right away on the second try.
    Would that confirm that the issue is with java script or would that point to another problem with these sites?

  • Flash player causing blue screen upon loading video

    Hello,
    I have recently bought a new system. Everything runs  perfectly except for one critical problem; I can't view flash videos or  anything played in a web browser by flash player.
    Animated flash  advertisements will load to the first couple of frames, I will hear a  bit of noise and then a brief 1-2 second system hang and straight in to a  bluescreen. Same goes for youtube etc, might see a frame, if that, a  brief noise and hang/bluescreen. This has occurred since I have  purchased the PC.
    I have attempted to fix the problem by updating  my graphics drivers to the latest, updating flash player to the latest,  updating sound drivers to the latest.
    System:
    AMD i5 750
    ATI  Radeon 5870
    Realtek audio
    Windows 7 Professional 32-bit
    Mozilla Firefox 3.6.6 -------------> Flash player 10.1
    I am just viewing the bluescreen  dump file, there is no bug check string, however it seems to indicate an  AMD/graphics driver causing the conflict.

    The  computer has rebooted from a bugcheck.  The bugcheck was: 0x00000116  (0x85e1e2c0, 0x924145e6, 0x00000000, 0x00000002). A dump was saved in:  C:\Windows\MEMORY.DMP. Report Id: 070610-31621-01.
    I don't know if it is Flash player particularly causing the problem, or if there is a conflict between it and some hardware.
    So,  can anyone help?

    i'm having the same problem as the OP,
    System:
    Intel Q6600
    ATI  Radeon 4850 (drivers v10.9)
    Realtek audio
    Windows vista home premium 32-bit (auto-updates)

    my BSOD returned the error code: 0x00000116 (0x8505F150, 0x8F1E98B0, 0x00000000, 0x00000002)
    atikmpag.sys - Address 8F1E98B0 base at 8F1E4000, datestamp today
    it started before last summer, it doesn't happen often but lets just say its making me rather nervous to use youtube and other sites that use flash now.
    i've read allot of people have this problem and have traced it to using flash. i hope somebody at adobe is listening and not trying to blame hardware makers or drivers about this problem.
    i disabled hardware acceleration, i hope this does the trick until a real fix can be found
    btw if any flash animation gives a BSOD how else could we turn it off ? Think about it for a second people

  • K8N Neo Platinum 7030 blue screening/loading to black

    Running: athlon64 3200+, 1x 512mb crucial 333 1x 256mb crucial 333, nvidia gforce 6800
    My computer worked fine for many months, and even though I didn't install anything recently, it started freezing and blue screening, then loading to a black screen.  The first time it happened I was playing a video game, then I restarted and it did it again when I was playing the video game.  After a day or two it stopped loading to black screen, and it loaded successfully.  But whenever I tried to play a game it blue screened. 
    Then I reformatted, and when I was re-installing norton, it blue screened again, then it loaded to a black screen again.
    Thanks for your help in advance

    It would help to know a little more about your system setup, however I would agree that you should try memtest first.  You should also try to get another 512MB stick to match your other one.  Generally (from what I've learned and heard) RAM likes to be matched in pairs that are as identical as possible.  One of my other thoughts is maybe your HD is overheating?  Feel your HD when your systems starts bluescreening.  If it feels kind of hot to the touch (like fairly hot compared to your processor) then that could be a problem.  My HDs were overheating and I could never figure out why my computer kept crashing until I felt the HDs, moved them to a better position, and placed a fan in front of them.  Also, do you have all of the latest drivers for your equipment?  Check your event log and see if it tells you whether the error was from a driver.  If it is from a driver, then just uninstall the piece of hardware and reinstall the latest drivers.
    Those are my first thoughts.  Good Luck.

  • I've deleted Wheel in Macintosh HD permissions and now I receive a blue screen at Start up

    Details:
    Mac Book Pro
    Snow Leopard OSX 10.6.8
    Problem:
    I was looking at Macintosh HD (ctrl-i) and saw "wheel" under permissions.
    I foolishly deleted "Wheel" (command delete) from permissions.
    I got the processing icon aka beach ball.
    I may have clicked something in frustration because Color (Adobe?) popped up. This may be nothing.
    I tried to force quit (command-option-esc), no luck.
    I held power button down, computer shuts off, I wait, I turn on.
    The apple and gray screen with loading symbol (gear) then blue screen with loading symbol followed by light blue screen.
    Blue then lightblue repeats.
    What I've tried:
    I try loading in safe mode. (shift)
    Blue Screen.
    Restarting (command+p+r and other).
    Blue Screen.
    Using 10.5.4 install disk > Disk Utility > Hard Drive permissions Check, Verify, Repair.
    Blue Screen.
    Also Change password > reset ACLs etc. first Macintosh HD, then Root.
    Blue Screen.
    I tried using a small external HD and booted from 10.5.4, tried updating to 10.6 but no.
    I don't have Snow Lepord. No backups (2T external died).
    Anyway to just replace the OS and keep my data without 10.6.X disk and not have to backup and install down to 10.5?
    Your help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

  • Portege R100 - Random Blue Screen of Death (IRQL not less or equal)

    Hi,
    I've been getting random "Blue Screen of Death" screens in the last few weeks. The error is "IRQL not less or equal" and it's performing a memory dump every time. If I get the error and try restarting the laptop after, I usually get the same "Blue Screen of Death" screen when booting.
    I didn't install any new hardware lately. Last upgrade was about a year ago; upgraded the memory. I've tried replacing the RAM with a spare one I had and I was still getting the same error.
    I didn't install any new software in the last weeks that would coincide with this error.
    I'm monitoring the CPU temperature and I doesn't go higher than 48 deg Celcius.
    I'm not an expert but I would assume this is purely an hardware problem ? Since I rarely hear the CPU fan, I thought it could be the CPU overheating.
    But even after making the CPU fan run at 100% using a freeware called "Speed Fan" I was still getting the same random "Blue Screen of Death" screen.
    I would really appreciate any feedback and help. I really like my R100 and would like to fix it.
    Mark.

    Hello, I have a Portege R500 and I am also too having this error message. I was getting a blue screen when loading the pc advising of a memory dump issues.I ahve replaced the ram inside the laptop and this has failed to resolve the issue. I am now having the error, IRQL not less or Equal everytime. I have run a memtest86 scan and this did show up possible memory issues. SO I have replaced the memory chip again. Still showing up as memory issues.
    You have mentioned this could be a cpu or memory controller. If this is the memory controller can this be replaced? or would a motherboard replacement be the best option?
    I have not tried a re install of windows 7 32 bit as yet, As the memtest86 program has identified possible memory issues. Please can some one advise if replacing the cpu and possible memory controller would resolve this. Memtest log available if wanted.
    Regards
    John Powell

  • Blue screen on startup

    I've just installed a new K7N2-L into my machine today and it blue screens while loading WIN XP if the memory is set at 166 mhz, with various errors, all fatal. If I set it at 133 it starts and benchmarks fine. I'm using a 266 1600XP processor and its a clean install of WIN XP. I've upgraded the  Bios and drivers to the latest on this site and the graphics card to the latest Nvidia reference.
    It happens if I use one or two sticks of (new) 256mb 2700 DDR (slots one and three) and if set at auto, spd or manual 166. Only manual 133 memory setting or below works.
    I also tried Win 98 and it also fails to start at 166 with various errors, mainly VXD? Again reducing memory speed cures the fault.
    Any ideas? Am I missing something really obvious? Is this the dreaded DDR compatibility problem - I've never had memory problems before in 5 years of PC'ing.
    Cheers

    OK, so I did a full run through (6 hours) with memtest at 133 and no errors found. Upped it to 166 and 100,000 errors in a matter of 2 minutes! No way is this PC2700...
    Ebuyer 256mb PC2700 is cheap and cheerful (if you want PC2100) but obviously no good at 166 speed.  I did a search on the net and it appears their reputation is very bad on returns and their memory isn't up to spec generally. Probably just PC2100 with their sticker on it...last time I use ebuyer  
    Now what am I gonna stick in it?
    Cheers

  • Blue Screen Log in

    I need help! I have a Macbook pro and as of today I can no longer log in. I've tried resetting my pram and restarted in safemode. None of this works. When I turn on my computer, the apple symbol comes on but then after that goes away... it just stays on the blue screen and loads over and over and over again. Doesn't pull up the log-in screen or anything. Like it is resetting but not properly. It does not get past the blue screen. I am in Yuma, Arizona on a MCAS and I do not have access to my utility disc because it is at home in California. I can't even leave base to go to an apple store. Can someone please help me on how I can get my computer working again because it is all i have out here?

    Try Booting into Safe Mode.
    To do this, you must turn on your MacBook Pro and when you hear the startup chime, press and hold the "Shift" key until you see the spinning wheel. If the computer logs in on safe mode, then shut your Mac down and reboot it normally.
    That should take care of the problem.
    Post back for updates...
    Edit: When you boot into safe mode you will be required to put your account password. Good Luck!

  • Blue screen, MBP won't respond to c and d on startup

    I am having multiple problems with my MBP since shutting it down the day before yesterday. I think that I might have closed the lid before it shut down completely. Now, it starts up, and goes to the blue screen, then loads the desktop then goes back to the blue screen. We have tried running c and d on startup and get no response. The eject button won't work either so that I can't remove the cd that is in it to put in the first install disk.
    I am a windows user and don't know much about Mac OS so any help is appreciated.

    Hold down the Option/alt key immediately after pressing the power button. This should hopefully get you into the Startup Manager to enable you to start from your installation DVD.

  • Blank Blue Screen / Freezing

    My iBook froze this weekend. Upon rebooting the thing, it started booting up with a blank blue screen and wouldn't go past. I tried booting into Safe Mode: Same result. I didn't have my installation disc with me so I began following these steps:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106464
    I can get into Single-User mode fine and perform the commands in there, ran fsck . No Problems found. I reset the PMU. No luck. Eventually, I got home and tried to bootup using my Tiger install disc. I ran Disk Utility and it found no problems. After another reboot, the iBook boots up to a blank blue screen when loading from the installation disc just as it does when loading Mac OS X regularly. Randomly here and there, after about 10 tries, I may be able to get the laptop to boot into Mac OS X or the install disc, but it will freeze shortly after and I have to restart and get the blank screen again.
    After trying the above, I took out the removable RAM and it booted up. I thought I had found the problem but shortly after it froze again. I'm not sure what the problem is but it's out of warranty and I know the answer I'm going to get is most likely hardware related.

    Hey Kyle,
    So like Rhonda says the work is not guaranteed. Here are pics of exactly that problem on a recent repair I did:
    "I just recently repaired a G3 iBook 900 MHz 14.1" that had the classic GPU problem. Unfortunately, while the GPU was healthy but loose before the reballing the "patient" died on the operating table. This is a known pitfall in the reballing process. So when I got the board back the GPU was working but totally dead exhibiting the dark moving shadows I've come to dread.
    The GPU was a ATI 7500 so I referenced it to many other PC laptop graphics cards.
    I settled on a new Inspiron 5100 ATI Radeon Mobility 7500 32Mb 9U768 on ebay and obtained it for $26 with shipping.
    Dale at Superior swapped the chips and "Voila" the 900 works like new.
    I have the Dell board and the 7500 chip and I thought that you all would be interested in what has been giving so many of us display headaches.
    The picture is here:
    http://tinyurl.com/3835w2
    What you see is the bottom of the chip on the left and the mounting array on the graphics board on the right.
    Even tho' this is a G3 the G4 chip is very similar."
    The other place that does this work is First Phase.
    Prices are like $75 for a reball and $50 for a reflow (probably not as good). You have to pull the board and send it to them.
    If you want to/feel comfortable doing that email me and I can provide instructions.
    You could take the bottom off and place a shim under that area we're talking about. iBooks have worked for quite a while with a shim in place. Your's might be a good candidate since it doesn't seem like there's a lot of detachment of the BGA.
