    Regular BSOD


    Since upgrading to Windows 7 (32 Bit and now 64 Bit) I am having nothing but BSOD problems, almost one a day. The machine prviously had Vista with very few problems.

    The BSOD error message seems to vary, but I managed to write the latest down.

    page fault in non paged area 0X00000050

    Not sure how to read the screen dump but attached. Google suggests this error may be a RAM issue, but I have not had problems prior to Win 7 and I have run a memory check in Windows on reboot and that comes back fine.

    The BSOD come at different times, different programs but mainly at the moment I am watching a lot of live Olympics from the BBC website when the majority happen, but other BSOD have happened on normal usage (bit less frequent).

    Intel Core 2 CPU T7200 2ghz, 2gig Ram

    Any ideas what to check, and how. Not sure how I can check my RAM (laptop, not even sure where to find them in the laptop).

    Hello Welcome to SF,

    I guess multiple issues are going on. Mainly its Memory. Lets start with basics. If your Overclocking please stop. Make sure your BIOS has the latest firmware. If you using any Antivirus or Firewall uninstall it and see whether that make any difference. Also the dump is pointing to win32k.sys which is basically a GUI related driver. So its worth uninstalling the current Display driver and download the driver from vendors website and NOT from Windows update. Also the crash has happened when you was browsing might be related to your Network card also the NIC card is not very updated one. Its worth updating the Network card driver from the manufactures website NOT from Windows Update.

    Run the Memory Diagnostic & HD Diagnostic

    Also i would recommend to run System Integrity Checker
    Start > Run > CMD >Right Click and Run as administrator > SFC/ SCANNOW
    Update the Following driver

    Code:
    TVALZ_O.SYS  Fri Nov 09 08:38:41 2007 (4733CF39)
    SynTP.sys    Sat Jun 21 04:36:00 2008 (485C37D8)
    PxHlpa64.sys Sat Feb 03 02:54:22 2007 (45C3AC06)
    ElRawDsk.sys Sat Jul 26 23:29:09 2008 (488B65ED)
    adfs.SYS     Fri Jun 27 02:22:37 2008 (48640195)
    agrsm64.sys  Mon Nov 10 20:31:35 2008 (49184CCF)

    Hello AS

    This crash was probably caused by memory corruption. To test the memory download memtestx86mand run it for 5 passes. Yes it will take a lot of time. It will also tell you if you have a heat problem

    When done with memtest you should also run a system file check
    Type cmdon search>right click and run as admin>SFC /SCANNOW

    let us know the results.]
