Solved BSOD PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA cannot boot

[axceed]

Hi, I'm getting BSOD PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA every time I start the computer. It crashes after the windows logo when cursor shows up in normal and safe mode. I did startup repair, sytem restore with no effect. I tested memory with Memtest86 and it showed no errors.

Computer is laptop PackardBell Tk87 with 4 Gb RAM, i3 CPU M380

I tested memory with Memtest86 and it showed no errors.

It is an inferior program that is not very trustworthy. If you want , you should test your RAM modules for possible errors.

​

Run memtest for at least 8 consecutive passes.

If it start showing errors/red lines, stop testing. A single error is enough to determine that something is going bad there.

Also, do you have access to another computer right now? If so, download Partition wizard Bootable CD (the last one in the link). Burn it in a blank CD or in a USB flash stick.

Boot into Partition Wizards GUI following this instructions. When you are on the last screen, take a camera snap of the screen and upload the snap here.

I solved the problem by deleting c:\Windows\System32\FNTCACHE.DAT using command prompt within F8 menu.

Have you got the windows update KB2982791 installed recently?

 

[axceed]

Yes, it was installed just before that problem.

Then do what they have done.

I solved the problem by deleting c:\Windows\System32\FNTCACHE.DAT using command prompt within F8 menu.

It appears that the problem is down to a corruption in the File c:\Windows\System32\FNTCACHE.DAT caused by the Update though there is some speculation as to wether one or several of the KB's cause the corruption.
