What are pagefile.sys Error Messages?

pagefile.sys Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) Errors

There are a number of reasons why you could be encountering issues with pagefile.sys. Most of the issues concerning sys files involve Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) errors. These types of pagefile.sys errors can be cause by hardware problems, outdated firmware, corrupt drivers, or other software-related (eg. Office update) issues. Some of these errors include:

pagefile.sys could not be found.
pagefile.sys failed to load.
The file pagefile.sys is missing or corrupt.
Windows failed to start - pagefile.sys.

A problem has been detected and Windows has been shut down to prevent damage to your computer. The problem seems to be caused by the following file: pagefile.sys.

:( Your PC ran into a problem that it couldn't handle, and now needs to restart. You can search for the error online: [BSOD] (pagefile.sys).

STOP 0×0000007A: KERNEL DATA INPAGE (pagefile.sys) STOP 0x00000050: PAGE FAULT IN A NONPAGED AREA (pagefile.sys) STOP 0x0000001E: KMODE EXCEPTION NOT HANDLED (pagefile.sys) STOP 0x0000000A: IRQL NOT LESS EQUAL (pagefile.sys) STOP 0x0000007E: SYSTEM THREAD EXCEPTION NOT HANDLED (pagefile.sys) STOP 0x0000003B: SYSTEM SERVICE EXCEPTION (pagefile.sys)

It's Critical to Resolve Blue Screen of Death Errors

In the majority of cases, you will encounter pagefile.sys BSOD errors after you've installed new hardware, software (Office), or performed a failed Windows Update. In other cases, software corruption caused by a malware infection can lead to pagefile.sys Blue Screen of Death errors. Therefore, it's critical to make sure your anti-virus is kept up-to-date and scanning regularly.

GEEK TIP : As a rule of thumb, it's always a good idea to create a Windows "Snapshot" backup / System Restore Point before making any hardware or software changes to your computer. That way, it's very easy to restore your system in the unfortunate event you encounter a pagefile.sys Blue Screen of Death error after recent changes.

Please enter the administrator password (if applicable / prompted).

Step 3: Perform a Windows Update.

In the Windows Update dialog box, click "Check for Updates" (or similar button depending on your Windows version)

If Those Steps Fail: Download and Replace Your pagefile.sys File (Caution: Advanced)

If none of the previous three troubleshooting steps have resolved your issue, you can try a more aggressive approach (Note: Not recommended for amateur PC users) by downloading and replacing your appropriate pagefile.sys file version. We maintain a comprehensive database of 100% malware-free pagefile.sys files for every applicable version of Office. Please follow the steps below to download and properly replace you file:

Click the appropriate "Download Now" button and download your Windows file version.
Copy this file to the appropriate Office folder location:

If this final step has failed and you're still encountering the error, you're only remaining option is to do a clean installation of Windows XP.

GEEK TIP : We must emphasize that reinstalling Windows will be a very time-consuming and advanced task to resolve pagefile.sys problems. To avoid data loss, you must be sure that you have backed-up all of your important documents, pictures, software installers, and other personal data before beginning the process. If you are not currently backing up your data, you need to do so immediately.

Download pagefile.sys Files (Malware-Tested 100% Clean)

CAUTION : We strongly advise against downloading and copying pagefile.sys to your appropriate Windows system directory. Microsoft typically does not release Office SYS files for download because they are bundled together inside of a software installer. The installer's task is to ensure that all correct verifications have been made before installing and placing pagefile.sys and all other SYS files for Office. An incorrectly installed SYS file may create system instability and could cause your program or operating system to stop functioning altogether. Proceed with caution.
