How To Fix The Verifying DMI Pool Data Error


I have known computer enthusiasts or as they're generally called today - techies that actually like when their computer breaks down. Well that is understandable to some degree, but the thing is they like tough problems, if it can be easily fixed it's an annoyance to them but if it is challenging then it's interesting.

For most other people it's probably a nightmare when their computer doesn't boot like it should and some strange errors and blue screen appear. When it comes to booting into Windows one very common error is verifying DMI pool data.

To explain it as simple as possible you get the verifying DMI pool data error when you turn on your computer and your BIOS checks data tables and then sends those data tables to the OS. If that check isn't successful you get this error and you can't boot into the OS.

There are multiple possible causes for this, if you want to try to fix it yourself try to think back if you've done anything that is somehow related to this when your computer worked:


  • Something that could have corrupted files on your computer.
  • A CD or disk is in the computer and that is causing the problem at hand.
  • Boot devices aren't setup properly so the computer is trying to boot from a disk that doesn't have an OS.
  • The BIOS is corrupt.
  • Bad connections to the hard drive.


As you can see there are many reasons on why you could be getting the verifying DMI pool data error and the solution will depend from user to user, there isn't a general fix. If you're not sure what it could be and aren't familiar with troubleshooting computers it would be best if you would take it to a computer repair service or if you're still under warranty to the store where you bought it.
