This morning when i turned on my computer, it randomly
crashed with a bluescreen error of

Page_Fault_in_non_paged_area

I was not using my computer at the time, it was just
sitting at the desktop. This has happend a few times now,
and I can't figure out what causes the problem, or how to
fix it.
thanks,
Jon

I understand that if your hard drive is starting to fill
up it can cause problems with the page file. 256 RAM is
minimal for XP which means the page file becomes more
important. More RAM = better when you're using XP :)
