bad_pool_caller stop: 0x000000c2

After installing Open Office and running it for the first time, my screen went all NES on me, I restarted my computer, and now every time I try to start windows (regular, any of the safe modes, last known good configuration) I get a BAD_POOL_CALLER blue screen with the stop code 0x000000c2

"Here is some repeated advice from several forums:

The hardware and RAM should be checked initially.
Boot the system once again using the Operating System setup CD, or
use a boot setup that has a GUI like BartPE.
With RunScanner it is possible to use a memory test tool.
Select a single account
If all the accounts open then the system registry hive might be the
problem.
Locate the hive damaged and rename it, do not delete it.
Create another hive from the backup or from the restore point.
Initially uses the latest one and keep checking the restore points
that come later.
Avoiding harvesting any replacement hives from the hard drive
booted Windows.
After which compare the hives for differences.

I'd try booting from the install disk and running a repair."
