When I start my XP it crashes with a PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA blue screen
the error reads: STOP 0x00000050 (0xFFFF7FF8, 0x00000000, 0x80536938, 0x00000000)
it doesn't refer to any file.

Hi,

Most likely cause is bad/failing ram. If you want to check the memory, there
are free programs here:

http://www.simmtester.com/page/products/doc/download.asp
http://oca.microsoft.com/en/windiag.asp

But keep in kind that a thorough test can only be done with test equipment
at a computer shop. Software tests are not perfect in diagnosing these
issues. At the price of memory today, you may find that the test costs more
than a replacement stick.
