BAD_POOL_CALLER error

Hi all Started getting BAD_POOL_CALLER BSOD's yesterday, had about four in total now. Think its something to do with my USB controller on my Abit KT7A RAID. I recently bought a Thrustmaster Firestorm Dual Power Gamepad, and upgraded the software and drivers from Thrustmasters website.

Now I get the crashes.
 
Anyone had this sort of situation before?

I turned off system reboot upon error to get the BSOD to stay up there instead of rebooting to BIOS.
 
Thanks,

Damn, I just read yesterday morning in a German magazine an article about W2K BSODs and error codes. They had a listing of all recorded BSOD causes, and yours was there, I saw it.
 
However I can't remember it Ill look into it though...

What's the chance that many of the error codes are identical in 2000 and XP? Maybe it's because they're based on the same freaking KERNEL ???? Think...
