I have an old ThinkPad laptop running with Windows XP Service Pack 2. I am using this laptop/Windows since long years and never had any problem but yesterday while running an Online Update suddenly I received a BlueScreen with the error code saying:
“page_fault in non-paged_area ntfs.sys Stop 0x00000050.”
Since then the laptop is not able to boot anymore. It keeps on looping restart as soon as the XP logo appears on the screen and with the same BSOD with the same error code. As per troubleshooting I ran RAM test which seems to be fine, tried booting in Safe Mode, Last Good known Configuration, Recovery Console, but all ends with BSOD.
I tried to re-install Windows XP by inserting its installation disk but during the setup I cannot see any drive to install windows. Even the hidden partition that is IBM recovery ends up with BSOD. I don’t have any idea left. Can anyone please tell me what could be the problem? Many Thanks.
