DMI pool data

Xref: kermit microsoft.public.windowsxp.hardwa216861

I just put this pc together. When it boots up to the
screen with the device listings it says at the
bottom "Verifying DMI Pool Data". Then it just stays this
way. I left it for about 15 minutes and it was still like
that. My Corsair Ram shows some activity in the LED
lights but nothing seems to be happening. Anybody know
what this is?

Hallo Matt,

This is not a windows problem, but resetting the DPMI pool in the bios
could help as well as rearranging your PCI hardware.

Matt,

I assume that you know that this is some form of a hardware issue, just not
exactly what kind. I would start with unplugging / removing all of the
unnecessary hardware devices / cards from the machine and see if it boots
then (down to just motherboard, video, RAM, cpu). You don't need the hard
drive at this point, so unplug that too.
