Resolved A Problem with Sleep Mode

VaCcAr0 · 2010/06/27

Every time I wake my computer up from sleep mode I get a blue screen and it says KERNEL_DATA_INPAGE_ERROR

I don't know why this is happening or what I can do at this point to resolve it. I already tried error checking the hard drive and I always run my up-to-date webroot antivirus software but that didn't resolve the problem. Any other suggestions on what I should do? I would very much appreciate all the help I can get for this one.

I would check your memory .....

KERNEL_DATA_INPAGE_ERROR

This Stop message indicates that the requested page of kernel data from the paging file could not be read into memory. This Stop message is usually caused by a bad block (sector) in a paging file, a virus, a disk controller error, or failing RAM. In rare cases, it is caused when nonpaged pool resources run out. It is also caused by defective hardware.

Defective memory chips may not be detected by memory checking tools. Some memory checking programs are not adequate tests because they do not test RAM in the same way that Windows uses RAM. Most memory checkers use read/write cycles when scanning memory. Since Windows is executing code from memory, it uses execute cycles. Execute cycles are different from read/write cycles and are more vulnerable to parity errors.

The only satisfactory way of testing RAM is to test the installed RAM in various configurations. If you have a single module swap it around the slots. If you have a pair of modules run each one singly, swapping between slots; then run them in pairs swapping between pairs of slots. If you have 2 sets of matched modules do not get them mixed up.

Thanks. I ran memory diagnostic and it said no problem was detected. When I tried sleep mode again I did not get the blue screen so hopefully whatever caused it is gone now.
