I just built a new computer with the following specs:
windows xp
athlon64 3800
geforce gt 6800 256mb
2gb kingston hyper x ram
2 WD 80gb harddrives (raid 0 )

For the first week it ran great after that it started to get BSOD referring to nv4.disp and bad_pool_caller. After trying everything I reinstalled windows. It ran good for another day through all installations then while playing a game I got a blank blue screen of death just saying a device was trying to corrupt the system. After that every restart says it recovered from a serious error or something about win32. Its running slow as heck but it doesnt have random lock ups only a blue screen of death. It ran fast until I started the installations on windows update. Does anyone have any clue whats going on? Thanks alot
heres the windows 32 error : Generic Host Process for Win32 Services encountered a problem and needed to close.

Heyyo,

Hmm, svchost.exe is used to run dll's.. but viruses have been known to infect it man. have you tried running a virus scan on your comp? if you look in the windows os section fo the forums, you can find free antivirus programs if you have none. avg is the best one on their list although it has given me grief..

the nv4.disp is a driver for nvidia based vidcards. Make sure you have the latest forceware drivers. It helps.
 
Whats a forceware driver? same as a detonator? I will get an antivirus but my comp is new so I hope that isnt the problem. My motherboard is an asus a8v deluxe does that have onboard video?
