My PC (mypc.txt attached) gets a STOP x'050' Page Fault in NonPage area when I try to boot normally. I can boot into safe mode with or without networking (that's how I'm sending this).
This happened about 8 weeks ago - and I tried everything I could think of. I finally gave up and reformatted hard drive - and reinstalled XP and SP2. It ran fine for 2+ weeks - and then same thing happened. I have done this 3 times now - PC will run for 2-3 weeks without issue and then during a reboot - I get the STOP x'050' and can't go any further.
At first I thought it might be related to Norton AntiVirus - so I stopped using it and started using AVG.
I have run Seagate's utilities on my hard drives - and they all return normal. Memory check programs running all night - also return fine.
I've seen other posts mention a "dump file" or bug check - but (sorry) I don't know enough to know how to turn this on or....
Could this be Power supply related? I don't have a lot of extra cash (I'm a dad of teenagers!!) so I can't just run out and buy a power supply to experiment with. But if that is what I need...
Can someone please help me? If there are utilities that I can run or other information that I could supply that would help - please let me know. This is a very frustrating situation and I don't know what to do next.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. School is starting soon and this PC is going to be important for homework.
Thanks!!
