I am trying to install a copy of win 10 and every time the install begins i get the following error : page fault in non page area...  how do I fix this plz?

 

thx

Is it a bluescreen of death error message? (BSOD) I have seen that message before, but only on BSOD's, the error is pretty generic but it has to do with memory, here is a guide that might help you

But how can I do that when it is happening on the install? It happened again with error of memory management on bsod. The memory sticks are only 3.5 yrs old.

Never judge parts on their age. Parts can fail at any time. So I would recommend you run memtest86+ on that machine and check the ram.

will it run off of a usb without an operating system on  a flash drive?

Could you be kind enough to type up a step by step instructions on how to use memtest 86 plz? I would greatly appreciate it.

to use memtest just boot the usb flash drive and let memtest do 1 complete pass. If you see any red on the lower section then you have a bad stick of ram or one that needs to be taken out and put back in. If you don't see any red on the lower section then all is good.

As warwagon said, test the RAM using memtest x86. Use their link to download it from another computer and follow their advice. https://www.memtest86.com/

What is the source of the installation? Are you using an official iso from Microsoft? Maybe it's a bad install image, try another USB stick.

As many as you allow. 3 should be fine. No red on the bottom?

This time I used the MS creation tool.

None so far.  Is there a way to kill it after 3?

Just remove the usb flash drive and press escape.

ok thx. Just in case ms media creation tool doesnt work, I am also d/w off techbench and will try a different usb stick. If it comes down to it, can I just use an image I had for that pc to straighten out this issue if possible?

Try installing win10 by plugging your usb installation drive into a USB 2.0 port instead of a blue usb 3.0 port. (if you were doing that before). At what stage does the install bsod?

We have seen this issue before. The issue was being triggered by the SATA mode configured in the bios.  Somewhere in your bios you should see SATA Mode and have a choice of ACHI or IDE.  Changing it to IDE while the install was being done, let the install complete without a blue screen.  

 

Thats what I would suggest.

A bios update may also correct it if that's the issue..
