I have a problem with Eve that I have never experienced before. I have recently put together a Dominix with an armour rep as part of my setup.
The problem is this, whenever I activate my Armour rep, my PC totally reboots itself. 
I have no idea why Eve or Indeed my PC would be doing this, as I have been using armour reps for ages now and even since the launch of RMR things have been fine.
If anybody has any ideas why this is happening and what I can do to fix it. Your assistance would be greatly appreciated.

If you have an AGP video card and more than 256MB of ram try setting your AGP Apeture to 256 in your BIOS. That sorted some problems I was having like that on my old AGP rig.

No I am running a Nvidia geforce fx 5200, with a Gig of RAM.
I have no idea how to fix this or why it would suddenly become a problem

You might be getting a stop error (blue screen), but your PC is set to reboot automatically, ergo you don't see a blue screen but immediately restart. Follow these steps:
1.) Right-click on My Computer and choose Properties.
2.) In the System Properties dialog, select the Advanced tab.
3.) In the Startup and Recovery section, hit the Settings button.
4.) In the System Failure section, remove the check from the box next to Automatically Restart.
5.) Hit OK to close the settings and choose OK again to close system properties.
Then, if you see the blue screen, right down the stop error code and the file it's failed in. For example:
STOP: 0x0000008E (c0000005, bf875fc3, f07bcd48, 00000000)
KERNEL_MODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED
nv4disp.dll
Post here any details...

Yep thats the one right there, I am not kidding that appears to be the exact same stop error or whatever you called it. I fixed up my PC to actually stop and give me the blue screeen instead of the mysterious reboot. But thats about all I can do without asking for more help to fix this. I have reinstalled my drivers time and time agian to no effect. I have downloaded the new drivers for my card to no effect, and have even installed my original drivers also to no effect. I really need some help with this I am at my wits end and I don't know what to do. If I have to endure any more of this sudden BS my computer is definately going to recieve a beating of some discription.
Help me obiwan you are my only hope.

I'm not sure how you can answer my suggestion with a "no" but did you try setting your AGP apeture to 256 in your BIOS?

No I didn't try changing the agp settings in the Bios yet.
Anyway here is an exact copy of the error in question.
BAD_POOL_HEADER
*** STOP: 0x00000019 (0x00000020, 0x85BF7C50, 0x85BF7D90, 0x0A280001)
I'll bet it is very similar to the one you described.
Will try The AGP settings now.

I have been having the exact same problems as you. Computer unexpectedly rebooting when repairing my own ship. Or sometimes just being near somebody else repairing their ship. Having read somewhere on these forums a post that suggested turning down the sound acceleration I went to the performance tab of advanced audio properties and turned down the sound acceleration from full to basic.
Since I did this I cannot remember the reboot problem re-occuring. So it seems to have done the trick.

In actual fact, the "BAD_POOL_HEADER" error is a soundcard crash, generally when you are using an onboard emulator like REALTEK SM. I have had this problem before with eve and the only solution that acutally fixed it was to turn off all audio in eve. I dunno why the agp settings fixed it, as i have a pci-ex card but just be careful as the reboot tends to occur mostly in a fight. I think its one of the gun sound affects that causes it for me as it only really happened when i was ratting. The thing to look out for, and this goes for anyone, is when you change your heading in your ship by double clicking, listen to the engine noise, is it cr-ackly or distorted? If so then you will probably experience a crash like this one at some point. By advice is to turn off audio on the sound menu until you can get hold of a proper soundcard, eve just doesnt like onboard sound...or onboard gfx for that matter :D

Really? It might just be my particular emulator then, it has coused me problems in games before (Silent Hunter 3, Neverwinter nights etc.) but i solved that by using dxdiag and turning the sound acceleration down to "standard", but even that didnt fix the problem with eve. Hmm, the irritating thing is that i havent actually been able to upgrade my sound drivers since i got the pc, the Realtek website has about fifty different drivers, and i have never been able to figure out what one is for mine... grr.

2Ordo:
you have onboard sound codec i guess, right? if this is the case you might want to check your motherboard manufacturer web-site and see if you can find updated sound driver there. or at least you may find exact name or other info re whatcha lookin for.

My old Audigy card would crash if I tried to run more than one account with the sound card enabled in Device Manager. I took it out and now I'm using the onboard Realtek audio and I've had no problems since (although if I run more than 2 accounts I still disable it for performance reasons). On thing I did have a problem with was the driver that Windows Update detects for it though. I tried it thinking it was more up to date and almost nothing worked afterward. I had to redownload the original from Asus and now I'm back to normal.
