Can you give more information about when this occurs and when this started
happening? What kind of applications are running at the time?

Parts of the System which are so important that they may never be paged
out are held in the area of RAM called in XP the Non-Paged area.
Because this mainly contains core code of the system, which is not
likely to contain serious faults, a Blue Screen referring to Page Fault
in Non-Paged area; probably indicates a serious hardware problem with
the RAM modules, or possibly damaged code resulting from a defective
Hard disk. It is, though, possible that external utility software (e.g.
Norton) may put modules there too, so if such faults arise when you have
recently installed or updated something of this sort, try uninstalling
it.
