Hi i recently upgraded to windows 8, it was all going well for a few weeks until...BAM bsod (blue screen of death), out of the blue , saying PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA. This doesn't stop my computer from starting up, however it occurs when i try and use certain programs Such as: Firefox and other programs (although chrome works fine), but most importantly MS Word! every time i try and open MS office applications it bsod's. This is very weird because it only occurs with some programs. I tested other big programs that worked fine such as Photoshop and After effects.
I read on the internet that it could be faulty ram, but i doubt this is the case because my comouter starts up fine, ive ran memchecks and removed ram sticks to see if one was causing this havoc. All failed to produce any information.
System:
OCZ 650W
16GB Corsair Vengeance
i7 2600k
p8z68 gen3
GTX 560ti
OCZ vertex 4 (OS)
WD caviar blck
Please help me! if you can. This is urgent, i have a lot of assignments coming up!
Thanks
Tim
