    BSOD - page_fault_in_nonpaged_area (after installing Age Of Empires 2)


    Hi,
    I seem to have encountered a problem after installing an old copy of Age of Empires 2. I now see a BSOD when running certain programs. The two different programs it has happened for are:

    Firefox - after typing in a URL, the BSOD appears
    VLC - When opening a file (only some - others work perfectly)

    I have uninstalled Age of Empires 2 and attempted to run a system restore but there were no previous restore points.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks in advance,
    COG

    It appears that the zip file you uploaded does not contain anything but your event logs, please rerun the SF diagnostic tool and be sure to press the grab all button then wait (around ten minutes should do it) then zip and upload the file here please.

    Sorry for the double post but I started looking through your log files while waiting, and I noticed your system eventlog was all the same thing repeated around 12 thousand times:

    Code:
    Event[12543]:
      Log Name: System
      Source: Ntfs
      Date: 2013-01-07T17:03:26.834
      Event ID: 55
      Task: N/A
      Level: Error
      Opcode: N/A
      Keyword: Classic
      User: N/A
      User Name: N/A
      Computer: user-PC
      Description: 
    The file system structure on the disk is corrupt and unusable. Please run the chkdsk utility on the volume \Device\HarddiskVolume2.
    So please on top of what I have already asked do the following:

    Run the system file checker:

    SFC.EXE /SCANNOW
    Go to Start and type in "cmd.exe" (without the quotes)
    At the top of the search box, right click on the cmd.exe and select "Run as adminstrator"
    In the black window that opens, type "SFC.EXE /SCANNOW" (without the quotes) and press Enter.
    Let the program run and post back what it says when it's done.
    Then from the same command prompt run:

    Code:
    chkdsk /f /r

    I dont see any dump files from the crash please be sure that your windows is configured to create dump files upon crashing, also see my above post for further instructions:

    Next time you get a BSOD run the sf diagnostics tool and click the grab all button, zip the folder it creates after waiting about ten minutes and then upload the files in this thread the way you have been doing so far, also did you follow the instructions in the quoted post above?

    I ran the cmd SFC.EXE /SCANNOW and it said:
    Windows Resource Protection did not find any integrity violations.


    I configured it to create a kernel dump and ran the SF Diag tool and attached the files too.


    Thanks

    Sorry, re-ran SFC.EXE /SCANNOW and did the second command upon completition:

    The type of the file system is NTFS.
    Cannot lock current drive.

    Chkdsk cannot run because the volume is in use by another process - Would you like to schedule this volume to be checked the next time the system restarts (Y/N)

    I have left cmd running.

    Thanks
