cd/dvd burner

[JOKERONE]

I am using xp home edition which was working fine then for no apparent
reason, every time I put a cd/dvd in my cd/dvd player I get a page fault in
non paged area 0x50. I have tried restoring to a previous system, removed all
added video and usb cards, updated all drivers, twice scaned for viruses with
two different scan programs and removed all programs that were added since
cd/dvd drive was last used. No improvement. If rebooted with xp installation
cd i get a special pool detection memory corruption 0xc1. HELP

Defective controller, cable, or drive would be my guess. If you are
using PATA type of cables and drives, try a hard drive connected to it.
You might have to change BIOS settings and the jumper on the hard drive
before it works. CD/DVD drives generally don't last too long. About 2
years of heavy use. FYI usually the lasers fail in this time. For DVD
drives, you have two. One for CDs and one for DVDs.

Interesting Andrew. As I have five Windows XP SP2 systems here which I
usually run with the pagefile turned off. As when I have Microsoft's EWF
enabled, using a pagefile is a big no-no. And I have noticed if I have
1GB or more, you almost never need a pagefile (virtual memory). And I
mean like 99.999% of the time for me anyway.

And I have never seen a page fault error under these conditions. And as
long as I have 150MB or more free RAM, I see no problems at all. If
less, what happens is the computer gets slower and slower then it will
lock up. Reminds me of the old Windows 3.1 and 9x/ME days when the
resource heaps gets full.

Do not listen to Andrew E. He is our resident idiot who continually gives bad advice
which can cause more issues for the poster.
Ignore this Troll

Great I appear to have corrected part of the problem but have installed three
CS's and got three blue screens.
1st - general failure 0x8e
2nd - general failure 0xc5
3rd - Stop : 0x24 (0x001902FE,0XF88D6600,0XBA6B5A5B)
NTFS.SYS - ADDRESS BA6B5A5B BASE AT BN693000, DATESTAMP 48025BE5

Already did a full driver verification with negative results. Now What.

I guess you did not read my warning about Andrew E. Serves you right
