I have been getting bad pool header bsod at startup with windows not even booting in safe mode how can I verify which hardware has gone wrong
 
Looks like RAM errors, try removing extra RAM modules, one by one and different ones, and booting to see if you can identify which one is bad.

If you can get bootable memtest program on USB or CD, try running that...
 
Nothing was installed not sure what went wrong I'm thinking the motherboard has gone bad any way I can verify ?
 
try booting it with win 7 startup to verify the cause of the issue. If your pc cant boot even to the recovery console with the startup disk, then the accused is the mobo or ram...

If it does boot into the win 7 Disk then try running a Memtest which is shown before the Install screen comes up. If RAM modules are causing an issue it could be confirmed whether they are faulty.
 
Memtest did came up and it was taking too long so stopped it

I think you should do a overnight run if & only if you don't have any option or you can't ascertain WTH is at fault.

BTW as far as I remember you can limit the no. of cycles & type of sequences your RAM is tested for, so if you tinker with the settings a bit if you know the differences between the settings then the run time can be reduced.
