ooops, I may have double posted this one, my apologies
Interesting...........
As a computer hobbyist I get asked to "repair" systems from time to time and
currently I have an XP Pro system that the owner had the blue screen of
death "page-fault etc" and I was asked to check it out. However, running it
in my workshop the computer works perfectly well for hours on end! Boots ok,
doesn't do any restarts on its own accord and whilst using at least three
applications (Photoshop & MS Word) at a time, handles them all well.
However, after returning it to the owner the system soon starts playing up
again, "page_fault", and rebooting of its own accord! Would I be correct in
assuming this could be a hardware issue (her printer or video cam or maybe
even her household power supply? I checked the voltages on the computer
power supply and also via the boot menu and all are within normal
tolerances. Computer power supply is ok. Removed and re-seated the RAM. I
would appreciate any ideas on this please.

Help! I am getting a Blue Screen error "at12dvag.d77
page_fault_in_nonpaged_area" etc. It goes on to say "disable B105 memory
options such as caching or shadowing".
What do I know about these things...Nothing! All help is appreciated.
Wrong newsgroup. Try a newsgroup which specializes in hardware
for your OS (which you have only inadvertently disclosed. <eg>)
For your convenience I am cross-posting this reply to one now
in case someone there wishes to try helping you now.
Good luck
