BSOD BAD_POOL_HANDLER crashes - Windows 8 x64

Your Nvidia driver is still causing issues.

It's an unknown 0x19 bugcheck so there's not much information there.

Code: 
BugCheck [COLOR="#FF0000"]19[/COLOR], {23, 3e, 0, fffffa80070ad4b0}

Code: 
fffff880`0b7e9568 fffff800`86a74518 : 00000000`00000019 00000000`00000023 00000000`0000003e 00000000`00000000 : [COLOR="#0000FF"]nt!KeBugCheckEx[/COLOR]

fffff880`0b7e9640 fffffa80`00000000 : fffff880`0b7e9730 fffff880`0b7e9760 00000000`00000000 fffff880`0b7e9728 : [COLOR="#FF0000"]nvlddmkm+0x1b4e39[/COLOR]

Nvlddmkm is freeing a pool which is causing a bugcheck, this is due to either not freeing all the allocations properly or it's trying to free bad addresses which don't belong to it, given it's a minidump I can't tell for sure.

Again the Nvidia driver is causing kernel corruption, it's causing linked list corruption which seems to be caused by a double remove command which makes sense as the nvidia driver is freeing allocations.

Try rolling back or updating to beta drivers.
 
Guess I'm screwed as I'm at the latest driver from Nvidia for my 9600M GT and previous driver also had issues. A search on Nvidia drivers and Windows 8 crashes shows that I'm not the only one suffering with their lousy drivers. Apparently, they've gone downhill and since it's a laptop, I can't switch to a Radeon. How I wish I went from the original Vista 64 to Windows 7 instead of 8. Going to stay away from Nvidia in the future and Microsoft too if I can.

Thanks for the help though. At least it crashes less frequently after updating the card reader driver. Maybe a new driver will eventually come along from Nvidia that's more stable with Windows 8.
 
I know what it's like, I've had lots of problems with Nvidia drivers, you just have to find a stable one for you, it's difficult but one should work.
