[SOLVED] Bad Pool Header error

I'm using Windows 8.1 to create a customized Win 8.1 iso.  I'm able to choose all my options in Winreducer.  Once I hit finalize, the app goes through all the items and then crashes the whole system once it reaches the finalization process.  I get a BSOD saying that there was an issue with a Bad Pool Header.  This has happened to me multiple times over the last 3 days that I've been trying to create a custom install.  Any advice?

Hello,

I just did a little digging on Google and I found these links : (using "bad pool header windows 8.1" search criteria)

WinReducer use only its own installed folder to perform all tasks, so it don't touch at your installed Operating System files.

Hope this will help you. Have a good day.

I tried cleaning out the Winreducer folder and re-installing all the dependent apps, and I think I found the issue.  I was using some x64 versions of the apps instead of all x86 versions.  Switching to x86 eliminated all issues and system crashes.  This thread can be marked as solved.  Thanks!

That's excellent news, and thank you for the information !
