"Page fault in non-paged area" means it couldn't find a page of memory - but that the page its looking for is one that shouldn't ever be paged (swapped) out. This can be a number of things (bad driver, something scribbling in memory, corrupt disk), but could also be a hardware problem - like with the RAM, or the memory controller.
Use "MEMTEST86+" - a free utility that will stress-test memory. Run that for as long as you can stand. That should pin-point any memory issues. I run it for a day or so after installing new memory.
You really need it on a bootable CD - a good one that comes with a bunch of other utilities - all free- is the Universal Boot CD, or UBCD. Just D/L the ISO and burn to a CD, boot from it.
