The win32k.sys problem aflicts hundreds of users throughout the year on a daily basis
with there being no apparent reason for this, sometimes it's down to faulty drivers,
bad memory, overheating even the odd bad stack caller.
But in my experience of dealing with problem and I've dealt with this on a number
of occasions via different pc's and through instances not of my own making.
But the results and answers in getting the systems running again or valid fixes.
Most of the time you will be told to check your memory first with memtest86, worth
doing..anyway..!
Then open your case and check to see how dirty the lil bugger is, see if all the
fans are still turn'nin. CLEAN INSIDE. (nb) Common one this, for creating problems.
Now reseat your memory with your pc switched off at the wall, and do the same with
everthing else, also it's a good idea to remount your cpu with some new artic silver
grease, remember make a very thin contact surface.
Most common reason for the non-page-error associated with bsod that accompanies this
problem is... wait for it...
My computer-properties-advanced-performance-settings-advanced-virtual memory-change
Depending on how much Ram you have installed and the os installation your virtual
ram settings should be ajusted for the requirments of the system, don't let the pc
do it.
Ajust it yourself.
If you have selected no paging then your problem is here and you need to select custom
settings.
for say 512mb set 800mb min and max
1gig 1200min and max
on every bootable part of the drive ie: xp installation drive c:
after which your problems should disapear.
