BAD_POOL_HEADER

The BAD_POOL_HEADER bug check has a value of 0x00000019. This indicates that a pool header is corrupt.

Important

This topic is for programmers. If you are a customer who has received a blue screen error code while using your computer, see Troubleshoot blue screen errors.

BAD_POOL_HEADER Parameters

Parameter 1 indicates the type of violation. The meaning of the other parameters depends on the value of Parameter 1.

Parameter 1 Parameter 2 Parameter 3 Parameter 4 Cause of Error

0x2

The pool entry being checked

The size of the pool block

0

The special pool pattern check failed.

(The owner has likely corrupted the pool block.)

0x3

The pool entry being checked

The read-back flink freelist value

The read-back blink freelist value

The pool freelist is corrupt.

(In a healthy list, the values of Parameters 2, 3, and 4 should be identical.)

0x5

One of the pool entries

Reserved

The other pool entry

A pair of adjacent pool entries have headers that contradict each other. At least one of them is corrupt.

0x6

One incorrectly-calculated entry

Reserved

The bad entry that caused the miscalculation

The pool block header's previous size is too large.

0x7

0

Reserved

The bad pool entry

The pool block header size is corrupt.

0x8

0

Reserved

The bad pool entry

The pool block header size is zero.

0x9

One incorrectly-calculated entry

Reserved

The bad entry that caused the miscalculation

The pool block header size is corrupted (it is too large).

0xA

The pool entry that should have been found

Reserved

The virtual address of the page that should have contained the pool entry

The pool block header size is corrupt.

0xD, 0xE, 0xF, 0x23, 0x24, 0x25

Reserved

Reserved

Reserved

The pool header of a freed block has been modified after it was freed. This is not typically the fault of the prior owner of the freed block; instead it is usually (but not always) due to the block preceding the freed block being overrun.

0x20

The pool entry that should have been found

The next pool entry

Reserved

The pool block header size is corrupt.

0X21

The pool pointer being freed

The number of bytes allocated for the pool block

The corrupted value found following the pool block

The data following the pool block being freed is corrupt. Typically this means the consumer (call stack) has overrun the block.

0X22

The address being freed

Reserved

Reserved

An address being freed does not have a tracking entry. This is usually because the call stack is trying to free a pointer that either has already been freed or was never allocated to begin with.

Cause

The pool is already corrupted at the time of the current request.

This may or may not be due to the caller.

Resolution

The internal pool links must be walked using the kernel debugger to figure out a possible cause of the problem.

Then you can use special pool for the suspect pool tags, or use Driver Verifier "Special Pool" option on the suspect driver. The !analyze extension may be of help in pinpointing the suspect driver, but this is frequently not the case with pool corrupters.

Use the steps described in Blue Screen Data to gather the Stop Code Parameters. Use the stop code parameters to determine the specific type of code behavior you are working to track down.

Driver Verifier

Driver Verifier is a tool that runs in real time to examine the behavior of drivers. If it see errors in the execution of driver code, it proactively creates an exception to allow that part of the driver code to be further scrutinized. The driver verifier manager is built into Windows and is available on all Windows PCs. To start the driver verifier manager, type Verifier at a command prompt. You can configure which drivers you would like to verify. The code that verifies drivers adds overhead as it runs, so try and verify the smallest number of drivers as possible. For more information, see Driver Verifier.

Windows Memory Diagnostics

If this Bug Check appears inconsistently, it could be related to faulty physical memory.

Run the Windows Memory Diagnostics tool, to test the memory. In the control panel search box, type Memory, and then select Diagnose your computer's memory problems.‌ After the test is run, use Event viewer to view the results under the System log. Look for the MemoryDiagnostics-Results entry to view the results.
