Blue screen, white text, following message (in summary):

A problem ha been detected and windows has been shut down to prevent
damage to your computer.

PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGE_AREA

Suggestions: Restart computer, if problems continue, disable or
remove any newly installed hardware or software. Disable BIOS memory
options such as caching or shadowing.

Tech Info: ***STOP: 0x00000050 (0xBF32E9E4, 0x00000001, 0x805F87F4,
0x00000002)

Physical memory was dumped.

*********************

What's all this mean? My computer shut itself down with the message
above. I'm also having virtual memory problems and it's been
crashing. As far as I know nothing has been installed lately, except
maybe screensavers. I ran a Trend Micro virus scan, which couldn't be
updated, and nothing was found. Could it be that my CPU is dying? I
usually have an external fan blowing on it to keep it cool, but it
seems to have died.

TIA

To troubleshoot Stop error 0x00000050

1. Remove any newly installed hardware (RAM, adapters, hard disks, modems,
and so on).
2. Run any system diagnostics supplied by your computer manufacturer,
especially the memory check.
3. Verify that any new hardware or software is properly installed. If this
is a new installation, contact your hardware or software manufacturer for
any Windows 2000 updates or drivers you might need.
4. If the computer is formatted with NTFS, restart your computer, and then
run Chkdsk /f /r on the system partition. If you cannot start the system due
to the error, use the Command Console and run Chkdsk /r.
5. Disable or uninstall any antivirus programs.
6. Disable BIOS memory options such as caching or shadowing.

"The reference to the Blue Screen Of Death (BSOD) and the STOP error
messages that are displayed is why I suggested you disable the automatic
restarts. As cryptic as these messages can be, they do provide a place to
begin looking for issues impacting shutdown"
