Hi. I rebuilt my computer last weekend. It has M2N-E SLI board, Sapphire 1950 pro 256Mb pci-e graphics, 4Gb pc6400- 800 ram (2 x2), Athlon 64 5600x2. At first it ran ok, tho rebooting took its time and often tried 3 or 4 times before success. I kept getting window messages that a windows file was corrupt so I reinstalled windows (xp).
Now, it starts but after a few minutes goes to blue screen with "bad spool header" legend. I am using my old 500 wt power supply and will now be ordering a new 750 version. Does anyone have any other ideas? Cheers |

You may need to disable/remove your printers until you can get this fixed. Also stop the print spooler service.

I'll try the ram thing but I cant understand why 4Gb is too much? I do have 4 x 1Gb sticks from my old setup tho not sure of the type etc. I'll give it a go. Cheers guys. Oh and it XP home..

XP home doesnt recognise more than 3GB or ram. XP pro 64bit does however.

Got home, read your posts and took out one of the mem sticks. Now just 2Gb in there. It lasted 15 minutes and went back to blue screen
 Any other thoughts guys. I really appreciate your help here.
