sounds like your cd isnt installed properly have you checked systems under countrol panel to see if there is a problem with the drive. Does the drive sometimes disappear because that happened to me when i had a newer drive than the motherboard which caused incompatability issues. id say check ur manufacturer for support

BAD_POOL_CALLER 0x000000c2 (0x00000007, 0x00000cd4, 0x11111111, 0x818CAC48) However this would only
