Hi i am experiencing random BSOD, i cant see any pattern to the frequency or cause. I have re-installed my OS updated all my drivers.
Win 7 Home Prem x64
OEM
hardware 2 yrs old
OS re-installed a few days ago
I have attached the dump files as detailed in this forum. I would appreciate any advice.
cheers ted thompson
Hello Ted and welcome to Seven Forums,
Bug Check 0x50: PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA
Causes: Faulty hardware, old drivers, third-party anti-virus, corrupt NTFS volume
I suspect it may be RAM (dump blames memory_corruption). I would test if RAM is causing BSOD. Use this Memtest86+ tool: RAM - Test with Memtest86+
Run at least 7 passes (6-8 hours)
Do this overnight
Use Imgburn to burn the .iso to CD (burn at 4x speed as recommend)
Just remember, any time Memtest reports errors, it can be either bad RAM or a bad motherboard slot. Test the sticks individually, and if you find a good one, test it in all slots.
Also, please update these old drivers.Code:******************************************************************************* * * * Bugcheck Analysis * * * ******************************************************************************* Use !analyze -v to get detailed debugging information.

thanx DeanP you were spot on. ran memtest86 which found an error after 5 passes. took box back to supplier who ran his own tests and identified the 4th ram module as defective. he replaced free of charge and PC is running great with no more "Blues". cheers ted thompson
Glad I could help. Let us know if you need anything else.
