Solved: 8 Years, 9 Months ago Sad  BSOD in Amnesia

Hello,
I am having a big problem with the amnesia. When I launch the amnesia.exe, the screen goes blue
and says that:

A problem has been detected and Windows has been shut down to prevent damage to your computer
BAD_POOL_HEADER


I have a ATI HD 4650 1GB DDR2 on a windows XP and amnesia is the only game that crashes... I have Dead Space 2, Fear 3, COD MW3, and i run them on the max settings... I have already tried a lot of things, even the troubleshooting guides and nothing works Sad . Can anybody help me? I really wanted to play this game...

Sorry if I typed anything wrong, I am brasillian and I don't talk english fluently.

BAD_POOL_HEADER sounds like low paged pool RAM, but I can't see that causing the problem with you having 1 GB of RAM on your Video Card. Have you tried updating your sound card drivers, and your video card drivers?

I've come to learn to not fear the living, nor the dead... But the monsters that hide in closets.

Attach me the dump file found under C:\Windows\Minidump folder. I should then be able to analyze it and tell you where the problem is.

Report(check google for answers, it is definitely not Amnesia's fault):

This was probably caused by the following module: win32k.sys
Bugcheck code: 0x19 (0x20, 0xFFFFFFFFE1A2ACD0, 0xFFFFFFFFE1A2AD48, 0xC0F0601)
Error: BAD_POOL_HEADER
file path: C:\Windows\system32\win32k.sys
product: Microsoft® Windows®
company: Microsoft Corporation
description: Multi-User Win32 Driver
Bug check description: This indicates that a pool header is corrupt.
This appears to be a typical software driver bug and is not likely to be caused by a hardware problem. This might be a case of memory corruption. More often memory corruption happens because of software errors in buggy drivers, not because of faulty RAM modules.
The crash took place in a standard Microsoft module. Your system configuration may be incorrect. Possibly this problem is caused by another driver on your system which cannot be identified at this time.
