Solved BSOD page fault in nonpaged area

[404errror]

hi

Getting page fault in nonpaged area bsod every morning, this is on a new build. If I reformat or move my ram to different slots everything is fine, play games browse etc, turn the pc on the next morning 12 hours later, laggy windows, chrome crashes repeatedly then get the bsod.

Was getting the same bsod when installing 7.

Upload your MSINFO32.nfo file. We have to check for something there before saying something suggestive to you.

1. Click on the start button
2. Type "msinfo32" (without quotes) in the search bar of the start menu, click the resulting link. It will open the System Information window.
3. File>Save. In the "File Name" filed, put "MSINFO32" (without Quote), give the save location to desktop, and click the "save" button.
4. Give the time for processing, it will save a .nfo file on your desktop.
5. Zip it, and upload it following the instruction.

done, any ideas?

Sorry to say, but no. What I was searching for is not present in your system. And the crash dumps are pretty silent.

Your crash dumps are not showing any finite probable cause. But those are caused by either physical memory corruption or memory read failure caused by any device driver.

Test your RAM modules for possible errors.
How to Test and Diagnose RAM Issues with Memtest86+
Run memtest for at least 8 passes, preferably overnight.

If it comes clean, enable Driver Verifier to monitor the drivers.
Driver Verifier - Enable and Disable
Run Driver Verifier for 24 hours or the occurrence of the next crash, whichever is earlier.

   Information

Why Driver Verifier:
It puts a stress on the drivers, ans so it makes the unstable drivers crash. Hopefully the driver that crashes is recorded in the memory dump.

How Can we know that DV is enabled:
It will make the system bit of slow, laggy.

   Warning

Before enabling DV, make it sure that you have earlier System restore points made in your computer. You can check it easily by using CCleaner looking at Tools > System Restore.

If there is no points, make a System Restore Point manually before enabling DV.

   Tip

• If you fail to get on the Desktop because of DV, Boot into Advanced Boot Options > Safe mode. Disable DV there. Now boot normally again, and try following the instruction of enabling DV again.
• If you cannot boot in Safe mode too, do a System Restore to a point you made earlier.

Let us know the results, with the subsequent crash dumps, if any.

Will do the tests and post back. Whats weird is the bsod only happens when I turn my pc on after its been off all night (although did get crash during w7 installation), I can use the PC whole day, gaming etc, no bsod

Think it may be the motherboard

memtest - 9 passes no error, no crash dumps.

Did a bios update yesterday, this morning no bsod, but still had crashes on windows file explorer/intel, then my pc freezes with screen tearing: http://i.imgur.com/yaR9nqG.jpg

Next logical step would be removing the graphics card and see if I get any issues, but If I don't maybe its the motherboard causing the crashes ?... I can play farcry 3, battlefield 3 no problem this only occurs in the morning after pc been shut down all night.

Before blaming the motherboard, get all the other possibilities checked. Motherboard is the last resort, as it cannot be checked.

Stress test the Graphics Card using Furmark.
Video Card - Stress Test with Furmark
Also, use the onboard graphics (not using the GPU) and see if it is the same there or not.

Stress test the CPU.
Hardware - Stress Test With Prime95

Scan the system for possible virus infection.

• Anti-rootkit utility TDSSKiller
• Windows Defender Offline

Check if the PSU supplies adequate power to the computer or not.

Have you enabled Driver verifier? What was the situation in Verifier?

You said, it crashes on windows file explorer/intel. What does it mean? C:\Intel? Or C:\Program Files\Intel?

These two are different.

Took the graphics card out, just using onboard vga, crashed this morning and bsod same as above, crash dumps attached.

One thing I haven't noticed earlier.

ITEM | VALUE
System Type | x64-based PC
Installed Physical Memory (RAM) | 2.00 GB
Total Physical Memory | 1.70 GB
Available Physical Memory | 933 MB

It is not anyhow enough for a 64 bit OS. Either you do a clean reinstall using the 32 bit version (your existing license will work for it) or enhance the quantity of RAM. Get a 4 GB one and apply it.

I do have 4GB, I took out 1 stick to get the system to boot otherwise just crashes, and cant do any tests.

Important info.

Does it crash in either slot, or in a particular slot only?
It it crashes in a particular slot only, RMA the motherboard.

 

[404errror]

Decided to run memtest after bsod crash and had list of errors within 10mins on each stick.. bearing in mind ive run memtest for 5.5 and 8 hours without any errors...

Either you follow Part 3 of How to Test and Diagnose RAM Issues with Memtest86+ to determine either it is faulty RAM stick or faulty motherboard slot; or you replace the RAM.

If memtest starts showing errors, Stop testing. Errors/red lines means one or more RAM is faulty. But the fault may occur due to a faulty DIMM slot, too, which is a motherboard component. Using memtest86+, you can discriminate between a faulty RAM and a faulty motherboard.

How? Say you have two RAM sticks and two DIMM slots. You obtained errors at the test with all RAM sticks installed. Now, remove all the sticks but one. Test it in all the available slots, one by one. Continue the same procedure for all the available sticks.
How to make the inference that is it a RAM issue or it is a motherboard issue? Suppose you have got the result like that:

test|Slot1|Slot2
RAM1| Error | Error
RAM2|Good|Good

It is a RAM, a bad RAM.

But if you have got a result like that:

test|Slot1|Slot2
RAM1| Error |Good
RAM2| Error |Good

It is a motherboard issue. The particular slot is bad.

If it is a branded computer, then the slotwise memtest process may void the warranty. In such a situation it is better to take it to the vendor.

Did some research on my corsair ram. Apparently bsod is quite common on these particular modules, when booted up from a cold start - so thats why I was only getting the bsod in the mornings after being switched off all night.

More info on it: forum.corsair.com/v3/showthread.php?t=92663

Be doing RMA, thanks for the replies Arc

You are welcome, mate.
Best of luck with the replacement RAM
