PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA

[Rksk]

Windows xp restarts with showing this error in blue screen.
PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA

sometimes it comes when loading windows, also sometimes when working.

it must be not a hardware fault (exept the hard drive) because i pluged hard drive to my working pc and reinstalled windows xp but still the error comes with this hard drive.

can it be a problem of the hard drive?
or have i to format the hard drive?

Probably hardware problem. I hope that you googled and checked what it means. Swapping hard drive might not help. It could be bad RAM, Video RAM, etc. Anyway, try cleaning the mainboard, the memory and the Graphics card if you have one.

I also guess it is RAM. Try to change the RAM slot in your motherboard.

Also, is it only coming for this hard drive? I mean, when you plug another hard disk, is it working without any page fault?

It is a very very old computer. therefore it have so many bugs with hardwares.

sometimes it works with another RAM but sometimes it doesn't work.

it is pc of a my friend. i told him to get it to a shop to repair it because i haven't time to paly with its crazy hardware bugs.

thank you Herath and Neo for reply.
