How to Fix “PAGE FAULT IN NONPAGED AREA”?

 In the Windows operating system, the nonpaged area is a particular part of the memory that contains critical files your computer needs in order to function properly.

These critical files are stored in the nonpaged area so that the RAM won’t keep switching them back and forth between itself and the paged area. If there happens to be an issue with this part of the RAM, the system runs into a PAGE-FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA error and shows a BSOD (blue screen of death). 

In today’s blog post, we will be covering how you can fix this issue and what are the different reasons which cause a Nonpaged Area error.

So let’s begin.

This error typically occurs when a system is unable to access a specific page of memory that should be present in non-paged pool memory. 

This can be caused by a variety of issues such as:

  • Issues with device drivers.

  • Conflicts with the system's virtual memory management. 
  • It can also be caused by malware or a system that is out of date.
  • Damaged or corrupted RAM.
  • Faulty operating system.
  • The inability of Windows to find files that are supposed to be in the nonpaged area.

Now that we know what causes this issue let us take a look at how to fix this error.
