in [Windows XP]

From: Barobi on 29 Jun 2010 00:10 hi folks, i have an acer laptop with xp home; suddenly, it keeps re-booting with the BSOD that says at the top "page fault in non paged area". it disappears too fast to read the rest - which lists a loong string of 0x00000050 .... etc. it boots into safe mode ok, but i don't have a clue what to do in safe mode. SP3 is up to date etc. thanks for any pointers. BC
From: PA Bear [MS MVP] on 29 Jun 2010 01:37 What anti-virus application or security suite is installed and is your subscription current? What anti-spyware applications (other than Defender)? What third-party firewall (if any)? Has a(another) Norton or McAfee application ever been installed on the computer (e.g., a free-trial version that came preinstalled when you bought it)? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ To see the STOP error, you'll need to change the way Windows reacts to a BSOD. Right-click on My Computer (on your desktop) | Properties | Advanced | Startup and recovery | Settings | System Failure | Make sure the first 2 options here are checked but that "Automatically restart" is NOT checked | OK your way out and reboot. Alternately, look for the STOP error in Start | Settings | Control Panel | Administrative Tools | Event Viewer | System. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ <QP> 0x00000050: PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA Requested data was not in memory. An invalid system memory address was referenced. Defective memory (including main memory, L2 RAM cache, video RAM) or incompatible software (including remote control and antivirus software) might cause this Stop message, as may other hardware problems (e.g., incorrect SCSI termination or a flawed PCI card). </QP> Source: http://aumha.org/a/stop.htm <QP> The following actions might prevent an error like this from happening again: 1. Download and install updates...for your computer from Windows Update. 2. Scan your computer for computer viruses. 3. Check your hard disk for errors. </QP> Source: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff559023(VS.85).aspx Barobi wrote: > hi folks, > > i have an acer laptop with xp home; suddenly, it keeps re-booting with the > BSOD that says at the top "page fault in non paged area". it disappears > too > fast to read the rest - which lists a loong string of 0x00000050 .... etc. > > it boots into safe mode ok, but i don't have a clue what to do in safe > mode. > SP3 is up to date etc. > > thanks for any pointers. > > BC
From: csnyder on 21 Jul 2010 09:35 May be bad form - but I'll top post so everybody see this. On an ACER with page fault in non-paged area the first line of attack is to REMOVE the e-lock application. It may have worked when it was written but it conflicts with both AVG and something Microsoft updated back in 2008 or 2009 "PA Bear [MS MVP]" wrote: > What anti-virus application or security suite is installed and is your > subscription current?
