PAGE_FAULT_IN_NON_PAGED_AREA

I am getting the odd BSOD with the error message of
PAGE_FAULT_IN_NON_PAGED_AREA so I thought I would look at the memory
dump for any info but the only memory dump file I can find is
MEMORY.DMP in C:/WINDOWS and it's close on 1GB is this normal?

In "start up and recovery" settings I have it set to default which is
64kb memeory dump which should overwrite each time.

Or is this not the file at all and are they the minidump files, which
are basically garbbled hex code which is of no help?

The files which have shown up in the BSOD so far are atapi.sys,
win32k.sys and ntfs.sys

Any info would be much appreciated.

Cheers

.
