Troubleshooting 0x50 PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA

The Debugging Tools for Windows are required to analyze crash dump files. If you do not have the Debugging Tools for Windows installed or dump files are not being generated on system crash, see this post for installation/configuration instructions:

The blue screen of death (BSOD) that is referenced by 0x00000050 PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA is often a result of a buggy driver that attempts to access information at an invalid location or a driver that has corrupted the memory. Most crash dumps reference the system kernel (ntoskrnl.exe, ntkrnlpa.exe, ntkrnlmp.exe, and ntkrnlpamp.exe) which is typically not the cause of the issue, but rather where the issue was detected. Enabling the driver verifier with standard settings may produce more informative crash dumps.

Since the corruption is usually detected long after the time that it occurs, the !analyze -v output may not be useful and may be misleading if actual drivers are referenced. In many cases if the fault is not reported in the kernel, the driver may change from dump to dump.

PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA (50)
Invalid system memory was referenced.  This cannot be protected by try-except,
it must be protected by a Probe.  Typically the address is just plain bad or it
is pointing at freed memory.
Arguments:
Arg1: fffffa8045cdb740, memory referenced.
Arg2: 0000000000000000, value 0 = read operation, 1 = write operation.
Arg3: fffff80003ebf497, If non-zero, the instruction address which referenced the bad memory
 address.
Arg4: 0000000000000005, (reserved)
