xboxrulz1405241485 0 Report post Posted October 27, 2008 Hey guys, my brother's machine is screwing up.It blue screened at least 3 times today. The first two times it came with a PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA error. Alright, so I went to do a chkdsk /f /r. Once that was complete, the system rebooted into Windows again.Then when I login, it gives me a STOP 0x00000024 bluescreen and then I'm like O.o?!?What should I do?Is it a corrupt filesystem? It was just working while my bro was just on Firefox so highly unlikely or is it a problematic hardware?He has a Samsung 160GB HDD ... could it be the motherboard causing faulty data?Thanks,xboxrulz Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
faulty.lee 0 Report post Posted October 27, 2008 I think you have corrupted ram. Try running memtest. Or you can try get into safe mode by pressing F5 when booting up. As for memtest, most livelinux distro has it. E.g. Koppix. Get the 2007 cd version. It's also good for backing up your file from your computer in case you can never get into windows again Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Entheone 0 Report post Posted October 27, 2008 Generally speaking, and since the days of Windows 2000, a STOP 0x00000024 error indicates an NTFS file system problem. It may be as simple as the ntfs.sys going berserk, or as bad as the entire hard drive getting corrupt for some reason. Since your brother was working regularly (and so it seems that the hardware didn't receive any smacks on the head), it should only be a software issue. But you've already tried the chkdsk /f /r command, so it looks like this is a dead-end. Perhaps you should have your brother try his luck with the low-hanging fruit. Have him check that the hard drive's power and data cables are plugged in correctly, and then run another disk check. You might also want to take a look at Microsoft's official paper regarding this error message... https://support.microsoft.com/en-us This is pertinent to Windows 2000, but nothing seems to indicate that it won't work for Windows XP as well. So give that a shot and let us know how it goes. Good luck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
xboxrulz1405241485 0 Report post Posted October 27, 2008 Apparently, it was a paging issue and it's a faulty RAM module. I guess after years of humming by beautifully it finally gave up.xboxrulz Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

iGuest 3 Report post Posted October 9, 2009 0x00000024 SolvedStop 0x00000024I found that on a Dell XPS M1330, the SATA setting had to be changed from ACHI to ATA in order to get the system to boot. After a successful boot (which included an automatic chkdsk), I could change it back to ACHI. -reply by bulletproof Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
