The Non Paged area is used for central system code that may never be
paged out to the page file. Parts of the system itself are unlikely to
cause these faults, unless there is damage to the software, or bad RAM.
But some other third party things push themselves in there - my
suspicions would center on Norton SystemWorks, or other 'Norton' product

It is *just* possible that it might arise from video drivers, at the
point where they 'switch off - so a check at www.nvidia.com for the
latest drivers that *they* provide as their recommendation for Windows
XP would be worth trying
