Hi all,
September for me too :) and STILL this boring PAGE_FAULT blue screen msg.
ALWAYS win32k.sys, but...
...I got some news for you (don't know if bad or good).
I'm having this prob NOW with Xp sp1, but I had it with Xp (no sp1) TOO !
And what's more, I DON'T have AMD but I have INTEL cpu, PIII, 1 Ghz, Matrox G550
and SBLive Platinum.
NOTHING ELSE...
No software installed...(just to check and hopefully SOLVE this prob).
No overheating (around 30°)...
I've checked my RAM (SDRAM PC 133) and found 2 of them working bad.....so I removed
'em (512 Mb lost....)
Now I'm testing your last advice : I'm using only ONE 256 Mb Ram, coz after AIDA's
report I discovered that my last two RAM's were made by DIFFERENT producers.....
Hope THIS could be the REAL solution.....but I wonder....will I solve evrything only
buying Ram modules from a unique producer ???
Or have I to suspect that it works only with ONE RAM bank ??
I mean......
I had 4 banks....
2 were damaged....(and removed)
The other two were GREAT !!!!! ....
But XP seem not to crash no more only using ONE of them !!!!!!!!!
Have I REALLY to lose 3x256Mb RAM banks ???
I had 1 GB............I STILL WANT 1 Gb !!!!!!!!!
