Sorry to sound a little silly, were do i find the log file ?

I have checked the log file and copied the following,

Application Log

0000: 6c707041 74616369 206e6f69 676e6148
0010: 68532020 6954776f 652e656d 32206578
0020: 302e302e 2036322e 68206e69 61676e75
0030: 30207070 302e302e 6120302e 666f2074
0040: 74657366 30303020 30303030 30

is this to do with the BSD ?

Had a BSOD on start up recently, the boot up got to the windows log in page (ie displayed the user a/c's) then within 1/2 second bombed into BSOD.
Below is what i managed to write down from the screen before it rebooted.

NTFS Says: PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGE_AREA

Thanks Mr Huddy,
next question is, how do i change the paging size on my HD please
I am running a 160GB SATA HD on a A7N8X-E vr 2.0 MoBo which boots up as a third party drive.

many thanks

Thanks Huddy, i spent a lot time the other week trying to find that setting window ! :confused:

many thanks for that info.

To date i have not had any problems.

since i have increased the paging file size to 1.5 times that of my 2GB RAM, things have been fine.
There has not been one occurance on the nasty BSOD

Many thanks guys
