My system running XP Pro continues to reboot itself for
no reason about every 10 minutes. I do get the blue
screen with the following
message "page_fault_in_nonpage_area. Any ideas on the
fix?

Thanks

The non-paged area is part of RAM used by system components so vital
that they may never be paged out to the page-file.

So errors in their code are not likely unless there is damage to them on
hard disk. Faulty RAM is a possibility; try getting and running the
tester at www.memtest86.com

I also hear that some Norton Security (?) items put themselves in this
area - they are more likely to give trouble. SO if you recently
installed anything of that sort (not necessarily only Norton) uninstall
it and see if the fault goes
