Server Crashing / Stop 0x00000050

[damansk]

My server had been crashing for while with Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) and bug check error code as Stop 0x00000050 PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA.

It would literally stop by business till I reboot it again.



So I tried pull up all information I could get and fix this.

Here is what I found-

Possible causes:

A faulty driver recently installed
Faulty RAM
Antivirus
Corrupted NTFS file system


I checked the system logs and found errors related to NTFS. Well, my disk needed a chkdsk /r /f to fix this.



Ran it at the command prompt and since it required a reboot to fix on the system drive (C:), had to reboot. Came back successfully.



It has been 14 days and it has not recurred.

It is most likely RAM issue, do a memtest leave it running for couple of hours see if errors start to show up, if so you'd have to replace the ram.

I had a problem where one of my servers would randomly crash. I ran a memtest and it couldn't even run that without crashing. I contacted the DC and they replaced the RAM as it was faulty. Since then the server has been running fine for over a week.

Hi there,

I trust this issue has been ironed out?
Please let us know.

Thanks

Contact your DC asap and get the RAM checked out.
