asdf2345 Posted July 24, 2020 Posted July 24, 2020 Windows Server 2008 works fine on the hardware, but because of a few programs I use not wanting to work on a server OS, I went back to Vista, and tried to use my new knowledge to fix the issue. I tried installing from disk with no XHCI drivers, no effect I tried the generic XHCI drivers instead of AMD official XHCI drivers, no effect. I tried installing Vista Business instead of Vista Ultimate, no effect. I tried replacing all the drivers from Vista with the drivers from 2008, it made things worse. I tried installing KB2886840 and KB3013808, KB2886840 wasn't needed according to the system, and KB3013808 installed, but didn't fix the problem. I also installed KB2864202 to try and fix the issue, and for those generic XHCI drivers, but it had no effect. The bluescreens are Bad_Pool_Header, Bad_Pool_Caller, and IRQL_Not_Less_Or_Equal. There might be more, but I haven't had automatically reboot after system crash turned off for long I have some minidumps from my current and previous install, if those are helpful Previous install minidumps Current install minidumps I'm going to try one more thing, but it requires a reinstall, so whatever you suggest will be done on a fresh install of Ultimate
asdf2345 Posted July 24, 2020 Author Posted July 24, 2020 Now I'm mega confused, Server 2008 now experiences the same issues, when the previous install worked fine
asdf2345 Posted July 24, 2020 Author Posted July 24, 2020 I fully updated Vista on another machine, will transfer over the SSD, and see if I need to get any Server 2008 updates

I give up, I can't get Vista working, Also, the driver broke Server 2008 and Vista for me, causing it to either not boot up, or freeze if I tried installing it in setup

The only drivers I have installed are XHCI, and even then, I got the bluescreens before installing the drivers with other installs. I've also tried running the RAM at auto instead of using the XMP profile like I was, but that didn't help.

Also, I don't think I saved the stop codes, but the minidumps should have the stop codes. If not, I can try rebooting back into my Vista install, and try getting them. Staying up for as long as I did trying to install Vista yesterday (and the day before that) has worn me down, so if you don't respond soon, I'll be sleeping.

I was busy and the same as you , 72hrs ongoing here. I honestly dont know what can be done , a few people suggest trying safemode but seeing your case it might be some whole other issue completely , perhaps try installing an AHCI driver , in my other laptop Windows 7 gives constant bsods without it.

Also, 72 hours is a long time, yesterday I slept after almost 36 hours, which I think was the longest I've gone.
