I'm continually getting the kernel_data_inpage_error BSOD at quite random times - during skype calls, bringing computer out of sleep mode, playing games - and I can no longer say it was a one-off kind of thing, but I'm not sure how to fix it, and found this forum hoping for some help.
I ran the tools requested and both the diagnostic tool and cpu-z reports are included in the zip file, though I was unable to run RAMMon (even as administrator) and was given the message "Unable to load DirectIo driver. Unexpected error."
If it helps at all, this laptop is about a year and a half old. The hard drive and wireless card were replaced about six months ago due to defects. Also, the last time or two I've started up the laptop, I've gotten a warning about a fan not working (it still seems like it is upon testing however), but before I spend money on replacing it I want to make sure the rest of the laptop is not a lost cause.
Unfortunately, I don't own a copy of Windows 7 as I bought it preinstalled with the laptop, so if the OS needs a clean reinstall I would appreciate a warning.
Thank you for any info you can provide me with.
