Page_fault_in_nonpaged_area

meowmeow · 14 Jun 2016

Currently suffering from some random timed BSOD after installing new motherboard/cpu/ram and upgrading to Windows 10 from 7. Originally upgraded, but had the same PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA BSOD, so I completely formatted my hard drive and installed a fresh copy of Windows 10 to see if it would help. Worked fine for a day or so, then got the same bsod earlier today. Doesn't seem to happen when I'm doing anything in specific, in fact, earlier today I was laying down trying to sleep and noticed it had BSOD.

Thanks for your help.

Hi meowmeow,

Is the BIOS resetted to the default optimal settings?

Diagnostic Test

RAM TEST

Run MemTest86+ to analyse your RAM. MemTest86+ - Test RAM - Windows 10 Forums

Note

MemTest86+ needs to be run for at least 8 complete passes for conclusive results. Set it running before you go to bed and leave it overnight. We're looking for zero errors here. Even a single error will indicate RAM failure.

Make a photo of the result and post it.

Addition:
If errors show up you can stop the test, remove all sticks but 1 and test this single stick in each slot for 8 passes or until errors show, switch sticks and repeat.
If errors show up and you see them a lot later, no problem, the errors don't affect the test.

Please fill in your system specs

Please follow this tutorial and download the tool. The tool will give you detailed information about your system specs, please fill in your system specs more completely including PSU, cooling and other used stuff like mouse, keyboard, monitor, case, etc.
The PSU, cooling and other stuff are NOT mentioned in the tool.

How to fill in your system specs:

Hey, thanks for the help. BIOS is set to default, and also flashed to current. I managed to get a lot of lovely red bars with memtest86+ not even finishing the first pass. Also tried switching the stick [I'm just using 1x16GB] into a different slot, still got errors.

You need to replace your memory in that case.
