Hi, I just installed the Windows 8.1 (blue) through a bootable usb (ultrabook without optical drive) all normal, but when I connect the usb drive, I get the error BAD_POLL_CALLER and the machine restarts.

But when I connect other regular usb drives works only with my memory (kingston 8GB) does that, I tried usb drives of other brands and all ok, but were smaller, probe connecting an external disk 1tb usb 3.0 and all ok . When attempting to connect a usb equal to mine (Kingston 8GB) a friend lent me ... same thing happened again, the error BAD_POLL_CALLER. The USB drives are functioning properly, tried it on other machines.

What I can do? or who believe that should be the problem?

thanks

A bugcheck (BSOD) is a mechanism to protect your PC from damage.

You get this one:

Bug Check 0xC2: BAD_POOL_CALLER

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff560185%28v=vs.85%29.aspx

The BAD_POOL_CALLER bug check has a value of 0x000000C2. This indicates that the current thread is making a bad pool request.
 

To see the cause I have to take a look at the dumps with the Debugging Tools for Windows.

Please start the Windows Explorer and go to the folder C:\Windows\Minidump. Next, copy the dmp files to your desktop, zip all dmp into 1 zip file and upload the zip file to your public Skydrive [1] folder and post a link here.

If you can't see dmp files, make sure your Windows is configured correctly [2][3] to generate dumps.

If you want to analyze them your own, check those videos [4][5] and read this KB article [6].

Looks like the Intel Storage Driver is the cause:

Try this newer driver:

https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?agr=Y&ProdId=2101&DwnldID=22676&keyword=Intel+Rapid+Storage+Technology+%28Intel+RST%29&lang=eng

Thanks for the reply, I tried the solution suggested but the error persists, I reloaded the new file generated ... this with the name "minidump2.rar"

The file is located at: https://skydrive.live.com/redir?resid=391A63C0873DE59B!405

the driver was not updated correctly. You still have the old driver from 2012
