PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA

[Frustrated in LA]

At startup, I received a stop 0x00000050
(0xe118b000,0x00000000,0xfc1b0e89,0x00000001) and an
indication of a problem in ntfs.sys. This occurred after
booting with some new, bad memory. I removed the memory
but the error did not go away.

To attempt saving the data on the disk, I moved the disk
onto another system, this one running W2K. At startup
this system also received the PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA
message and a similar stop 0x00000050 message, also
indicating a problem in NTFS.SYS.

The volume was formatted with NTFS and I believe that
there might be some sort of corruption of the file system.

Has anyone seen this? Is there any way to recover the
data on the volume?

Thanks for helping.

Hi,

Boot the Recovery Console, run "chkdsk <volume:> /r" on the <volume> in
question.

See if it helps.

Thanks for the pointer to lots of good information. Seems
like I should try to run CHKDSK, but I get the stop
message prior to having the system come up - even if I
attempt safe mode - command prompt. Attempting to bring
up Recovery console fails as well.

Any way to run enough of a system up so that I can run
chkdsk?

Thanks

Hi

As Rick posted, you can run chkdsk from the Recovery Console - boot your PC from the XP CD and press 'R' at the 'Welcome to Setup' screen. If you only have one installation of XP you will still have to enter the number of that installation. If you press Enter your PC will re-start.

When I boot from the XP CD and press 'R' I receive the
stop message before the Recovery Console comes up.

Is there any other way to run CHKDSK?

Thanks

Hi

There's another way to get into the Recovery Console - using the XP Boot Disks:

Thank you for your continued support. I created the 6
boot disks and booted the PC. After all the diskettes had
been read and shortly after I pressed the 'R' key to bring
up the Recovery Console, I received the same stop
message. This method appeared to be no different from
booting from the CD, only slower.

My belief is that the NTFS volume has been corrupted. I'd
still like to try CHKDSK. Is there any other way to
create an environment that would support running CHKDSK?
Is there any other problem that would give me all these
results other than NTFS corruption?

Thanks again.

Hi

If you can't get into the Recovery Console, I can't see there is anyway to run chkdsk. You could try and remove all peripherals apart from the graphics card, to see if your PC will boot then.

Don't forget to leave your mouse and k'board attached though.

I don't think that the problem is caused by anything other
than the drive because I placed the drive onto another
working W2K system. When rebooting with this drive, W2K
failed to come up, giving a similar stop 0x00000050
message. That's why I have come to the conclusion that it
is an NTFS corruption issue. The question is how to fix
such a problem when neither XP nor W2K will not come up
with this disk attached? I'd still appreciate any insight
you might have. Thanks.

Hi

I can't see a way that you are going to be able to access that disk unless you reformat - which will mean losing everything. Will the setup program run as far as 'delete partition'? As the disk is using NTFS you can't use a Win9x Boot Disk with it - although I believe some people have found a bootable NTFS disk whereby the volume can be formatted - www.google.com

Once again thanks for your assistance. I have found the
answer to my problem. Indeed there was corruption in
NTFS. The solution was in a program called NTFSCHK which
allows CHKDSK to be run in a DOS environment. This
program is provided as freeware from
www.sysinternals.com. I will be forever gratefull to
those folks. You might want to try this program if NT,
W2K or XP refuses to run due to NTFS corruption.

Once again thanks for all your efforts. They are very
appreciated.

Marvin.

Glad you have found the solution to your problem - thanks for the feedback. I haven't used any of Sysinternal's utilities for some time.
