page fault in non paged area

[Hawaiian Tim]

I am having a hard time getting going because of this
error that happens about 30- 120 seconds after log in and
shuts down comp. Please help me understand page fault
error. Could it be residue from a not properly cleaned
after reformatted hard drive that had previous win xp that
I formatted?

code has such an error, so the probability is trouble with hardware, and
most likely with RAM. But there are some third party items that install
themselves there - notably Norton Internet Security and possibly other
Symantec products. So if you have recently installed something like
that, try uninstalling it and see if the error goes
