Poolmon.exe Windows 7
After upgrading from Windows 7 Pro to Windows 10, I receive a pop up stating my computer is low on memory. And yes after checking perfmon, I notice about 90% of my RAM is being used.
Feb 02, 2014 poolmon tag. Windows Desktop. Using Windows 7 SP1. Ran poolmon.exe to debug a possible issue with excessive use of nonpaged memory. Jul 07, 2010 Hello, I need to run the tool called poolmon.exe, I have installed the Windows 2003 support tools and it doesn't appear to be in the list, any ideas?
Used by windows updates service. But my windows 10 is updated to the fullest.
Not sure why this happens and what the fix is to keep the warning from occurring. As I will be upgrading about 180 users soon AND would prefer to not get 1000 phone calls regarding 'low memory'. Note: all my computers are running 4GB RAM (some 6GB RAM). Hi, Mostly, driver cause such issue. You can use to see which driver is causing the high usage.
Install the, run poolmon, sort it via P after pool type so that non paged is on top and via B after bytes to see the tag which uses most memory. Run poolmon by going to the folder where WDK is installed, go to Tools (or C: Program Files (x86) Windows Kits 10 Tools x64) and click poolmon.exe. Then, open a cmd prompt and run the findstr command.
Windows 7 Update
To do this, open cmd prompt and type 'cd C: Windows System32 drivers', without quotes. Then type 'findstr /s.
', where is the tag (left-most name in poolmon). Now, go to the drivers folder (C: Windows System32 drivers) and right-click the driver in question (intmsd.sys in the above image example). Click Properties, go to the details tab to find the Product Name. Look for an update for that product. If you can't find a driver to the pooltag, look in the pooltag.txt if the tag is used by a Windows driver. Here you need to capture a grow of the pool usage with.
Open a cmd prompt (cmd.exe) as admin and run this: xperf -on BASE+Pool+ReferenceSet –stackwalk PoolAlloc+PoolFree -buffersize 2048 -MaxFile 2048 -FileMode Circular && timeout -1 && xperf -d C: tracepoolalloc.etl Now open it in, and look for the tags under AIFO ( allocated insde freed outside) and expend the stack. From the function names you may have any idea what is going on. Please remember to mark the replies as an answers if they help and unmark them if they provide no help.

My PC recently rebooted and the logs point to a nonpaged memory pool leak. I've had great success nailing down this type of error using poolmon.exe on Windows XP. My job still runs Windows XP so I never really had to look into debug a Windows 7 client so I figure now is a good time to start. I have a couple of questions first though: 1. Is there a new tool or version of poolmon for windows 7? Would poolmon perform the same it did on a 32 bit versus a 64 bit OS? Does there need to be a 64 bit tool?
