ok do you have any other pc that you Could download windows 7 Ultimate and Burn to a Disk?

Cause you will have to Format your PC hard drive

1)First thing to do is Put your Vista Disk in your Pc
2)GO Through until you Find Select drive to Install Windows onto
3) Select your Hard drive and Click (Drive Options)
4)Click Format Drive
5)Reboot your Pc and take windows Vista Disk out
6)after downloaded and Burned
7)install windows 7 And you should be done

You might need to download one of pirate bay, there is one one there. Burn it to a 4.7GB DVDRW and then install it. It has a stealth activator so no need to worry about getting any cracks or anything. Try that, if it still doesnt work take it in to a PC company.

Have you installed a driver or new piece of software/hardware lately.
As pool header errors are related to allocating memory issues.
90% of the time if you have a bad pool error then it won't let you use restore discs as it will mention about memory.
Also if it were to restore the problem is likely to come back.

There are 2 ways I have fixed it before:

(A) I had a machine given to me that are two antivirus's on it so they conflicted and windows failed to allocate memory properly as a pool header was damaged. Since safe mode and the normal mode would not let me in to the system I had to fully format the harddrive to get rid of atleast one antivirus. Also when I reinstalled windows I had to put all the computers devices drivers back on to fix the bad pool error.

(B) I had another machine that was given to me but this one was a lot easier to fix. As they told me that they installed a new webcam driver and hardware to it and it caused the computer to turn out like it did. All I had to do was download the latest drivers for the webcam off another computer and burn them to a disc, then configure the bios on the broken laptop to read from the disc before the hard drive. Then inserted the disc into the laptop when it was booting up, let it do what it needed to do, then afterwards the laptop worked fine. But they asked me to remove the webcam drivers just to be on the safe side and so it wont happen again.
