Help How to fix stop code page fault in nonpaged area windows 10

The "Page Fault in Nonpaged Area" error in Windows 10 is a common issue that can be caused by a variety of factors, such as faulty hardware, driver conflicts, or corrupt system files. Here are some steps you can follow to troubleshoot and fix this problem:

1. Check for hardware issues: Faulty RAM can often be the cause of this error. You can try removing and reseating your RAM modules to ensure they are properly connected. If you have multiple RAM sticks, you can also try removing them one at a time to identify if a specific stick is causing the issue. Alternatively, you can use a program like Memtest86 to test your RAM for errors.

2. Update your drivers: Outdated or incompatible drivers can also trigger the "Page Fault in Nonpaged Area" error. To update your drivers, you can go to the manufacturer's website for your specific hardware components (such as graphics card, network adapter, etc.) and download the latest drivers. Alternatively, you can use a driver updating software to automatically scan and update all your drivers.

3. Check for system file corruption: Windows system files can become corrupted, leading to various errors including the "Page Fault in Nonpaged Area" error. You can use the System File Checker (SFC) tool to scan and repair any corrupt system files. Open Command Prompt as an administrator, then type "sfc /scannow" and hit Enter. Wait for the process to complete, and restart your computer.

4. Check for disk errors: Faulty hard drive sectors or other disk-related issues can also cause this error. You can use the built-in Disk Check utility to scan and repair any disk errors. Open Command Prompt as an administrator, then type "chkdsk /f /r C:" (replace C: with the letter of your main drive) and hit Enter. Follow the prompts and restart your computer if necessary.

5. Perform a clean boot: A clean boot helps identify if any third-party software or services are causing conflicts. Press Win + R, type "msconfig" and hit Enter. In the System Configuration window, go to the Services tab and check "Hide all Microsoft services". Then click on "Disable all" and go to the Startup tab, clicking on "Open Task Manager". In Task Manager, disable all startup programs. Restart your computer and check if the issue persists. If not, you can gradually re-enable services and startup programs to identify the one causing the error.

If none of these steps resolve the "Page Fault in Nonpaged Area" error, it may be necessary to seek professional help or contact Microsoft Support for further assistance.
