PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA (XP Pro)

Hi

I have an inspiron 8600 running XP Pro, about 4 months old. Recently I started have a problem at start up as follows...

A blue screen ... PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA, with a memory dump

also

A blue screen ... DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL, with a memory dump

If I am persistant, it will start after about 3 or 4 tries ...

Anybody have any idea what the problem may be

See if there are any entries in the event logs (control panel-admin tools -event viewer) that point to the cause.
