Error BSOD during startup: PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA detected
Hey everyone,
I’m facing a persistent issue with my PC. It keeps blue-screening with the PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA error every time, even after it restarts automatically. The system reboots, runs the repair, and boots back into Windows, but the problem keeps recurring. I also notice it affects my GPU performance—I’m not entirely sure—but it might be related. My monitor runs at 240Hz, yet games don’t seem to load properly. There are occasional freezes lasting about a second when opening programs like Windows Settings or Chrome.
The screen usually turns black after the motherboard logo appears and spins, and I never see any other issues. I’ve reinstalled Windows 10 several times using DiskPart’s clean command, but one installation felt strange—no Microsoft login was required.
I’ve replaced my RAM and GPU, checked RAM with MemTest86, and run a drive health check with Samsung Magician, which shows everything is fine.
I’m unsure what to do next. I’ve seen others share their troubleshooting steps on Google Drive, so I’ll post the files here for reference:

Any advice would be really helpful. If you need any tests done, let me know. Thanks a lot!
bios hasn't been updated and was supposed to be my next step.
I'm only using Windows Defender as an antivirus.
I downloaded the newest version of Win 10 boot media from the Microsoft site and installed it onto a USB drive, then used that to install.
Thanks for your response.
