Odd things happen when installing game

Hi. When I installed operation flashpoint, I'd get a blue screen with something along the lines of Bad pool data.

At times, it would happen like 60% into the install, or right at like say 98%

I finally managed to get both opf gold and resistance installed, however, before resistance got finished installing, my system rebooted.

Some system specs -

Dfi lan party pro875

P4 2.4c

1024 ddr (dual channel)

creative labs audigy platinum ex

ati Radeon 9700 pro

pc power and cooling 425

Win Xp Pro with sp1

Thanks
