Windows Blue Screen page_fault_in_nonpaged_area?
I defragmented and ran a disk cleanup then shut my computer down. When I went to use it the next day, I got a blue screen with the error message: page_fault_in_nonpaged_area. Below were the following numbers: 00x00000050 (0x80098004, 0x00000001, 0x80515103, 0x00000000)
Currently I'm running Windows XP Home on a Dell Inspiron (desktop, not sure exactly which model but it's about 3 years old)
I tried F8 during boot and none of the options work (I tried booting last known settings, safe mode, etc) and it keeps redirecting me to the blue screen. Then I did F12 and ran a whole list of tests by symptom and they all passed. Also, I haven't downloaded anything recently or added new hardware. How can I fix this?? If I try reinstalling Windows, will it delete all of my files?

You can do a repair install of the OS and not lose your files. You will have to do all the Windows updates since your copy was produced!

Do not reinstall anything. You need to take your computer to be worked on and they can most likely get your files off of the computer. When it happened to me I had got some very bad virus of the internet. I had two Trojan Horses on mine.
