Help with BSOD win32k.sys, Page_Fault_In_Nonpaged_Area

mishmosh · 30 Aug 2013

Hello,

I am getting the BSOD with the error: win32k.sys, Page_Fault_In_Nonpaged_Area. Sometimes it is when I am running a lot of programs simultaneously, and sometimes it is when I just have one or two programs open and am not doing anything complicated. I am running Windows 7 on bootcamp on my MacBook Pro. I already tried running memory diagnostics, checking my devices, and restarting the computer in safe mode and trying to click on desktop icons (PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA STOP: 0x00000050 random freezes and - Microsoft Community), which all worked fine. Attached is my dumped file. Any help is greatly appreciated!!

Hi mishmosh.

It appears that here windows is installed on a MacBook Pro using Boot Camp. And the BSOD is caused by Boot camp.

Code:

And Boot camp seems to be old here ....

Is there any way to update it? If so, do it.

Interesting - thanks for looking into it. I will try to update BootCamp first, and then maybe take the steps listed here, but don't want to lose my access to my Mac files

It seems that Usasma gave you the same suggestion much earlier.
