got my new pc last night and its been running fine whilst I've been re-installing all my programs. However this morning i got a blue screen of death sayign bad pool header.

any idea what causes this? I was using windows easy transfer but it hadn't started yet i was just selecting files.

I have seen someone say it could be a compatibility issue with my motherboard and CPU... is that possible?

Looks like a problem with RAM,
you could try one module at a time to confirm this,
probably best give PCS a call.
