Re: Stop 0x50 w/ Verifier & WinDBG loaded



Did you manage to resolve this issue. We have a similar error with a
PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA blue screen.



Ours seems to be profile related not hardware related. The stops appear to
be random but we can force the issue by simply searching the registry for a
text string that would not exist (eg "Testest"). This WILL ALWAYS cause a
blue screen stop 50 error at the end of the registry search in certain
profiles, yet in others, the error will not happen. However, we have run
certain stress tests and mrmory test with no problems.
