On my pc after ive been on it for about 5 minutes i get a blue screen which says page fault in nonpaged area??m and i then have to restart the computer again ive got windows XP pro but can any think of any ways to sort the problem out?
Okay there are a number of things that you can do to help with this, first off: If you want to know the failing module, disable auto reboot. Procedure to disable auto restart Right click My Computer>Properties>Advanced>Startup and Recovery Settings and uncheck Automatically Restart. Or, go into bios and disable cpc override for your memory. This can prevent the listed error in some occasions (it's usually caused by some third party software error, like a driver, anti-virus, or firewall software, though at times it can be hardware related too, tricky little thing isn't it?) If you are mixing your ram with different types of brands/modules or filling all Memory banks full, try removing one Bank. It's actually ideal to install the PCI devices by filling up the 1st PCI Slot in sequential order. If you get desperate you can restart, set the min and max virtual RAM sizes to 0, shut down, reinsert ram, and restart. Windows (hopefully) will rebuild the page file (virtual memory) and resize it to around 20mb. It will give you an "Insufficient Virtual Memory" error on startup most likely, but if you just keep clicking OK, it should allow you to restart. Afterwards you can set the min and max page file size to 2x the total amount of RAM. These aren't exactly proven methods but it's a start.
Wow very good stuff. I learned from that one, and I don't have the problem. But I assume that error means that a program tried to page a file in a regular part of the hard drive. Am I correct?
