Can you advise me because both my laptop and desktop pc come up with excatly same error within a day of each other, “Page fault in non-paged area”? Only link is a removable drive used on both to store and retrieve files from.

I am having the same issue/error code. I recently replaced a broken screen on my laptop with a used one. I have had “Page fault in non-paged area” issues such as this ever since. Could this possibly be the “bad hardware” of which you are referring to? The screen works fine.

Greetings & Salutations to one & all:

I used to be very proficient on the computer, but with all of the vast changes that have taken place, I am at a lower level than a novice.

My 1-year old Gateway computer developed the BSOD terminal disease. I have files on that computer that I do not want to lose, so restoring to out-of-the-box condition is out of the equation.

I have downloaded “Registry Cleaners”, purchased one of them when it said that I had over 2,000 errors, but that didn’t stop the ever-growing BSOD monster.

In the end, I bought a used Dell off of a fellow who had it listed in Craigslist. The Gateway sits right beside the Dell, the BSOD staring at me like some sort of a prison guard, or worse yet, an executioner.

I have done everything I know, short of blasting the plagued thing into eternity. I do not know how to figure out which file, gig, or whatever the heck it is that has the problem that results into the BSOD.

Will someone PLEASE help me before the Mossberg 500 gets a shot at it??

Thank y’all, and be at peace.

I have been having the same exact problem since Wedneday. I cannot use Last Known Good Configuation or go into safe mode or any other mode either!

Download the UBCD disk http://www.ultimatebootcd.com/. Boot into this and then go to the registry tools and restore your registry to a previous version. Reboot and you should be back up. If you continue to get the error restore to an earlier version of the registry.

Hello! First of all nice guide, but the problem I’m having is that I cannot use Last Known Good configuation or go into safe mode or any other mode. I cannot boot to Windows at all! Any other suggestion?

I am getting the same error. It had been deteremined to be caused by an update to my antivirus.firewall program…Eset. Unfortunately, after uninstalling the program, I now cannot boot to windows at all. I can occasionaly get in to safe mode, but not normal mode. I keep getting kicked back to the F8 screen.

Can you help me? I have not boot disks.

First a kudo for writing some very interesting and useful posts. I noted in a recent one,”Page_fault_in_non-paged_area,” that readers are invited to post additional questions. Being a subscriber receiving these items via e-mail, I see no “link” to initiate a post back. I got to the one I’m using now by visiting the web site —
