Bad_pool_header bsod

[Quasimodem]

Well after downgrading from Windows 8, I now have a BAD_POOL_HEADER BSOD coming out of Hibernate... Never happened before upgrading to 8, then downgrading... I've tried 5 different Windows installs, using drivers from the Asus site...

Anyone familiar with the error?

More like leaving your car in park and it having a chance exploding when you put it in drive 😛

Glad to see that you got your issue resolved.

While on the topic of peerblock/peer-guardian :


Besides the original criticism of Version 1 being slow and buggy, most other criticism of PeerGuardian is around the actual technique used to block peers. Critics have pointed out that the blocklists are open to the public, and thus parties who may wish to circumvent PeerGuardian can actively check the list to see if their IP addresses have been blocked.

The blocklists are also managed by the public, but there is no fool-proof method on checking or reporting why an IP address or range are bad, nor on checking if the blocked IP addresses still remain bad. The list relies on the public to make submissions, and thus is vulnerable to attack itself (see above section on blocklist management issues).
