    If I close my hp for 15min or so it will open up and everything comes back up normal. On the other hand if I leave it closed for 25 min or longer when I open it I get the blue screen showing bad pool caller. What could be causing this?

    I am running Vista and have not added/deleted anything recently to cause this??

    The usual Google search suggests that error is due to a driver problem or possibly bad memory. Have you installed any new drivers or DVD burning software recently? Running MemTest86+ for a while wouldn't hurt. Next time write down the exact error code and Google that.
