What were you doing?
Have you checked the page file?

i was trying to play games ie titanfall and call of duty, bf4 each time it came up with the message stopped the game within about 30 seconds

ok - it's a bit of a guess at this point, but check your page file allocation!

The file highlighted is not your page file. As you can see thats the 2gb pagefile.sys
To get rid of it click on your start menu and navigate to Command Prompt (usually on Accessories menu) and right click then select run as administrator.

type powercfg -H

then enter.

This will get rid of that 6gb file.

You probably didnt realise that you had hibernate on but in this day and age of SSD's I dont understand anyone who uses sleep/hibernate.

As for the message, personally I would scan for malware/virus as it doesnt look like a Windows OS produced error but more of a fake one to me.
