I was having the same problem and it was driving me CRAZY!
I'm having the same problem..
BSOD with win32k.sys as the culprit, AND
PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA
followed by a restart.
I have a MSI 651 combo motherboard
512 MB DDR RAM (333)
on-board video (SIS 651)
Audigy2 Platinum sound card
Pentium 4 2400 Mhz
I've tried changing out the memory to a 256 MB SDRam, updated video driver..
I AM having trouble with the USB 2 driver install.
Seems I can MAKE the BSOD happen with Microsoft's Zoo Tycoon (dinosaur digs), or
running the DVD player. The BSOD usually happens at about 10 minutes or less. Yes,
not right away.
Okay! So finally.. 8-13-03.. I seem to have fixed it but changing my 512 MB 333 DDR
ram(2700) with 512 MB Kingston-brand 2100 DDR. All seems to be working fine now.
Good luck.. I say Keep trying different RAM and RAM configurations! Two weeks of
headache was solved by $70 in RAM. Oh, and the store I bought it from (Fry's) said
they'd take it back if I didn't need/want it!
