There is plenty of information availble on this forum that you can find with a search. Also, lots with a Google search, and on the knowledge base at Microsoft.
This is a common set of errors, and there are several fixes that will take care of the problem... but so many options that it is difficult to know where to start here... common are memory failure, video graphics card or driver failure...

Searching the web and these forums for, STOP: 0x00000050 (0xEC83EC8D, 0x00000000, 0xBAB9124E, 0x00000002) has brought back nothing. Is there nothing available to narrow down the problem?...

Those codes are usually just memory dumps... and usually do not tell you anything useful... showing what material was dumped in which locations... It can tell you stuff about memory and other items... particularly if the condition repeats.

Minidumps

The problem may related to hardware or software problem (ie such as Norton AV, Netlimter, ZoneAlarm, ANYDVD and etc). Dump analysis is required to find out the culprit. Zip 4 to 5 minidumps and attach the zip files here. You can find the minidumps at the folder \windows\minidumps\minixxxx07_xx.dmp

The minidumps

Hello Im rexlis friend who is having the problems.
I found the file and took out 4 minidump files.
hope they help if theres any other information that will help please let me know.
Thanks for the help so far.

just thought i would add i get these crashes normally wen playing world of warcraft but sometimes on desktop also.
The strange thing is i can get like 5+ crashes in a row then go for like 2 days without any.

i also got a blue screen with this info on it:
IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL

STOP: 0x0000000A (0xFFFFFFE4, 0x00000002, 0x00000001, 0x80510C19)

This stop error is related to video drivers... Surprize, surprize! ... and guess what? It's a Nvidia video card Maybe we should give Rexli a class in proper Internet searching too

RAM Problem ??

The cullprit is faulty ram. Reseat the ram to another ram slot. If it still crashes, run memtest to stress test the ram.

The minidumps say memory... Microsoft says video drivers... Who's right? Time will tell

thanks cpc

just got home from work gonna see how its running today and as i have 2 ram sticks il try running with just 1 as well maybe that will help.

il get bak to you guys as soon as i have some answers

and thanks again for the help so far.

Where do Microsoft say video drivers are to blame for Page_fault_in_nonpaged_area? Mabye you should give me that lesson in searching the Internet and i wouldnt have to waste my time replying to such useless posts.

the culprit is ram 99% sure

RAM is the culprit

ok i took one ram stick out and my pc has run fine all night.
hopefully my problem is fixed and i would like to thank you all especially cpc2004
