Page fault in nonpaged area - page_fault_in_nonpaged_area

I recently changed my mother board that I had already been using for a while... I tested the new one with the guy who sold me and the board was working without a problem.

When I took it home and came to connect it with the components of my motherboard, it always shows the blue screen with the error code "Page fault   in  NonPaged area".

I've tried to reinstall Windows and it didn't work.

I can't even use the PC, as soon as it turns on the blue screen appears.

I ask for help please!

    Hello how are you?

    I`m Marcelo de C., an independent Advisor. It is a pleasure to help you today. I know how frustrating it can be for you, but I will do my best to help you :)

    The error is caused by Windows not finding a file within memory that it expects to find. If you need to fix this error, well, this is how to do it.

    The root cause can be software or hardware, often an aborted Windows update or driver conflict from the software side or faulty RAM on the hardware side. Let’s check software first.

    First check the hard drive for errors.

    Open a CMD window as an administrator.

    Type or paste ‘chkdsk /f /r’ and hit Enter.

    Allow the process to complete.

    Then perform a system file check.

    Open a CMD window as an administrator.

    Type or paste ‘sfc /scannow’ and hit Enter.

    Allow the process to complete.

    It might also be useful to check Windows updates and drivers as they are often the cause of Page Fault In Nonpaged Area errors.

    Navigate to Settings, Update & security.

    Click ‘Check for updates’ in the Windows update tab.

    Allow the process to complete.

    Navigate to Control Panel, Hardware and Sound, Device Manager.

    Select hardware, right click and ‘Update Driver Software’. Make sure you check graphics and audio drivers as well as any third party webcam, printer and other drivers.

    Reboot and retest.

    If the BSOD still occurs, let us check the Windows page file.

    Right click ‘This PC’ in Windows Explorer and select Properties.

    Click ‘Advanced system settings’.

    In the Advanced tab click Settings in the Performance box.

    Click Change in the Virtual memory box and uncheck ‘Automatically manage paging files for all drives’.

    Set a custom size for the page file.

    Click Ok.

    Reboot.

    Finally, if none of those software methods work, it’s time to check your RAM. If your computer has multiple sticks of RAM, remove one and retest. If the fault persists, change the memory slot and retest. If the error keeps occurring, consider replacing your RAM.

    Problem solved. I found that the problem was actually with the hard drive itself. I installed windows on another disk and the PC is working without any problem.

    Thanks for the effort in trying to help.

    To access cmd you can make bootable media and enter from it.

    A quicker thing to test is to check the ram memories, this problem is mainly due to them.

    I tested my RAMs today using MemTest86 and it found no error.
    So what could be the problem???
