What kind of kernel data error is this? How to fix KERNEL_DATA_INPAGE_ERROR blue screen errors (0x0000007A)

I don’t know why, but human civilization cannot create anything eternal. This is confirmed by the error code kernel data inpage error. That is why any technology, structure or anything else has its own limitations in terms of service life. Manuscripts – and they burn. The only consolation in this case for owners of various PCs, perhaps, is the ability of the electronic filling to warn its owner in advance that very soon a legendary animal with the letter “P” will visit his property.

Fortunately, some problems can be fixed, but there are others that can only be resolved by purchasing new equipment or parts of it. It is the latter option that refers to the error code kernel data inpage error.

By the way, some people confuse this problem with kernel security check failure, which can also be discussed on our website

So, one fine day, a blue screen of kernel data inpage suddenly appeared in front of you. It is clear that not live, but on the screen of your favorite computer. What does this message say? It eloquently speaks of the fact that the hard drive (by the way, if you decide to force things and purchase an external drive, but are experiencing some problems connecting it, we advise you to read this) where a lot of important information is stored (photos from your phone, save files from games that everyone has already forgotten about, incomprehensible programs, and so on), has a defect. Maybe this is just a harmless joke? But no - if the code values ​​start with the number “0”, then this clearly indicates problems with your hard drive.

However, there is a very small chance that the problem was caused by a cheaper PC component.

kernel data inpage error - diagnosing

So, what kind of kernel data inpage error is we have more or less figured out. Now let's try to save the propeller - maybe it will blow away? Maybe so - if you are lucky and a winner in life! The thing is that for every hundred occurrences of the message “kernel data inpage error windows 8”, there is only one case when this trouble is associated with a cheaper part of your favorite computer - damaged RAM.

But, as one famous song says, believe in fate...

So, there are two ways to determine whether there is a problem with the RAM:

• Using pens, that is, one by one pulling out the strips from their connectors and diagnosing the state of the computer (it is recommended to take known working memory somewhere and check the computer on it).
• Using software diagnostics.

By the way, if the PC is under warranty, then it is not advisable to go into it with a screwdriver and open its case - this is fraught with troubles with the service center if you have to take your treasure into it. Therefore, the second option is clearly preferable. To diagnose the cause of the appearance of kernel data inpage error Windows 10, you will have to use one of the specialized software, of which there is quite a lot on the Internet today.

Sometimes various errors resulting from software or hardware failures may interfere with the stable operation of the Windows operating system. Due to the latter, for example, the so-called Blue Screen of Death (BSoD) may appear with the message Windows Kernel Data Inpage Error and error code 0x0000007A or 0x00000077.

Typically, error messages 0x00000077 and 0x0000007A occur when kernel traps occur when the operating system tries to load a page into memory from the paging file on the computer's disk, but is unable to access the data due to a software or hardware problem. This could be a damaged block in the paging file, a defect in the cable connection between the disk and the controller, a malfunction of the drive or PC RAM. The following instructions will help you clarify the nature of the error and try to eliminate it.

1. Check your computer for malware. You can do this using a free antivirus application that does not require installation.

2. Remove antivirus and other software (Acronis True Image, Daemon Tools, Adguard) from the operating system that uses low-level access to Windows components and libraries.

3. Check the file system of the C:\ drive for errors. To check, use the Check Disk system utility (chkdsk.exe) supplied with Windows.

4. Conduct diagnostics of the hard drives or SSD drives installed in the computer. This can be done using the free utilities HDDScan and R.tester. To avoid losing files and data, carefully read the instructions supplied with the programs!

5. Run diagnostics on your computer's RAM. To do this, you can use both and third-party applications, for example, MemTest86.

6. If there is a malfunction of the hard drive controller, replace the SATA communication cable with a known good one (new) or try connecting the drive to another port on the motherboard.

7. Using the Driver Manager system utility included in Windows, conduct a comprehensive diagnosis of the drivers installed in the system. About how to do this.

8. Update the BIOS, following the instructions on the website of the manufacturer of the motherboard installed in the computer.

9. Use the Windows To Go operating system, which can be installed on an external USB drive and run on any computer. Based on the stable (or unstable) operation of the mobile platform, you can determine the root of the problem and put aside its software component. How to create a USB flash drive with Windows To Go.

Unfortunately, computer equipment is also not perfect, like almost everything that is done by human hands. The advantage of electronic technology is that the intelligent system can warn owners about software or physical damage so that they can take action. There are correctable and fatal problems. The second type may well include the error code kernel data inpage error.

A blue kernel data inpage screen on the monitor screen almost always tells the user that the hard drive used on the computer will completely fail in the near future. You can obtain preliminary confirmation of this by carefully reading the information shown on the screen. You will need to find the digital values ​​of the problem that has arisen. If the encoding starts with “0,” then this clearly indicates serious problems with the equipment being used.

How to fix it?

So, what kind of kernel data inpage error is it is clear. Is there a way out?

In 99 cases out of a hundred, the cause of the kernel data inpage error in Windows 7, 8 and 10 is a damaged drive, but sometimes a faulty RAM can also cause a similar message. Naturally, the second option is more economically profitable, since a memory stick costs much less than purchasing a new screw.

How to determine what is causing this situation:

• The physical method is to disable the RAM strips, if there are several of them installed, and monitor the performance of the remaining equipment under similar conditions.

• Software diagnostics consists of checking the hard drive and RAM by special services.

To perform a diagnostic procedure related to a hard drive, you need to follow several steps:

1. Launch command line.
2. Launch the integrated service "CHRDSK".

To check memory, if a kernel data inpage error Windows 10 occurs and it is impossible to use the physical method, you can use special software designed for this.

If, when this case occurs, there is extraneous noise, creaking, or rattling from the side of the drive, then the problem is in its condition - it is recommended to urgently transfer important data to another place, since, subsequently, you may not be able to access their use.

In any case, the situation with this nuisance carries financial costs. The only question is what will you have to fork out for - a hard drive or RAM?

STOP Code: 0x0000007a

The KERNEL_DATA_INPAGE_ERROR blue screen of death appears whenever Windows is unable to correctly read something stored in memory. This can refer to both types of memory: stored memory on your hard drive, as well as dynamic memory in your RAM, which is commonly referred to by the technique as "memory".

Luckily, there are two very simple solutions to this, and if they don't work, you simply have faulty hardware. Below are the solutions, but first, I'll give you some screenshots of what this error should look like.

This error is as seen in Windows 8.

This error occurs in older versions of Windows.

The first possible solution is that your hard drive is causing the problem. To check if your hard drive is causing the problem in Windows XP, Vista or 7, open Windows Search ( Windows Key + F) and enter "chkdsk". Run it - You can't run Check Disk while you're actively using Windows, but you can schedule it to run automatically the next time you turn on your computer. Finish what you need to and reboot - the disk check process can take a very long time, especially on large and/or slow hard drives. Watch TV, play a game, take a nap... whatever you want to convey.

To do this, in Windows 8, open Windows Search ( Windows Key + F), and then type "cmd". Right-click on Command Prompt and select "Run as Administrator" from the bar at the bottom of the screen. You will need to provide administrator authentication and then the command prompt windows will appear. Enter the command “chkdsk C: /f /r /x”, where “C:” is the drive letter you want to examine or repair. This is most often the "C:" drive, but in your case it may be different.

When the disk check is completed, the computer will automatically restart. Check Disk will fix any problems it encounters on your hard drive—and it will likely encounter some, even if they are not the cause of this particular error.

The second possible solution is that your RAM is causing the problem. RAM stands for random access memory, and Windows uses it constantly to keep multiple applications running and keep track of important system data. To check if one of your folders is causing RAM, open another Windows search and type memory diagnostic tool. The following is similar to the disk check process - you can restart right away to check your memory, or you can schedule it for the next time your computer is turned on. Save what you need and run Diagnostic Memory.

Once both of these processes are completed, you will be able to determine what is causing the problem. If Memory Diagnostic shows no problems with your RAM, your hard drive is the culprit. If, however, it detects problems, it means that you have defective RAM that needs to be removed or replaced.

If you're using a laptop - or you just don't know how to replace RAM, contact the manufacturer or a technician to help you here. You have done your part.

Let's divide this article into 2 parts:

• Solution 1
• Solution 2

The first part will suit everyone who has error 0x0000007A ( KERNEL DATA INPAGE ERROR), but for those who have a hard drive on their computer with a capacity 750-1500 Gb and above, and the system is Windows 7 or Windows 2008, we recommend starting with the second part.

Solution 1. 0x0000007A - check the PC components.

It consists of checking computer components related to the computer's RAM and hard drive.

We wrote in detail how to do this in the article on common deaths. We will repeat here too.

Remember that all work involving the replacement of PC parts must be carried out with the power turned off. Improper handling of PC components + your inexperience or negligence = PC failure. You perform all actions at your own peril and risk.

Checking the hard drive and SATA cables and power connectors.

SATA cables

A common cause of hard drive problems is poor quality SATA cables. Cheap cables tend to harden and lose their conductivity properties.

This does not happen immediately, but gradually, over time. The cables are affected by daily temperature changes inside the case, from room temperature to operating temperature.

In advanced cases, when the system unit does not undergo proper care and cleaning, the difference between the room temperature and the temperature in the case can reach 30 degrees or even more.

Daily heating and cooling, exposure to dust, lead to deterioration over time. SATA cable. For modern hard drives and motherboards. Even invisible damage can cause a traffic jam, in much the same way as what happens on a busy highway due to a cat running into the road.

Before all the actions that will be described below, make sure that the cables leading from the motherboard connector to your hard drives are in excellent condition. Position “What will happen to him!”- Does not work on computers.

Do not forget the fact that any modern device, be it a computer, laptop, smartphone, is high-tech a device that is being developed by engineers. All elements of these devices are thought out to the smallest detail.

Therefore, you should not neglect such a “trifle” as SATA cable.

It also wouldn’t hurt to check the reliability of the connections and power connectors of the hard drive, and such adapters.

Checking the disk for file system errors and BAD blocks

To check the hard drive, it is customary to use programs that load into RAM, instead of Windows, and allow you to conduct a comprehensive check of the hard drive, such as Victoria and MHDD. Unfortunately, it will not be easy for the average user, whom Neoshibka.Ru is aimed at, to cope with them.

Therefore, we will consider the standard method of checking a hard drive using the program chkdsk included with Windows.

But, if for some reason, a blue screen with an error 0x0000007A(KERNEL DATA INPAGE ERROR) will not allow you to fully check the drive. You will have to study the manual for these programs, or do what we always recommend - contact a specialized service center.

So, in order to run the scan, you need to open a command line window. Click + and in the window that opens, enter:

cmd

and click on .

The result of this action should be the opening of a black window - the command line.

Now, in the command prompt, enter the command below and then click on .

chkdsk drive_letter: /f /r //Where drive_letter - your logical drive C, D, E, and so on.

First, check your logical drive C, and then D, E and so on.

It's okay if the system says that the disk is busy and asks whether to schedule the task before the next boot. In this case, agree and reboot the system.

Even before Windows boots, a scan will begin, the time of which will depend on the capacity of your disk. The utility will check everything necessary and correct it if possible. Repeat this step for all of your logical drives.

Checking RAM with MemTest

After checking the disk, if the problem persists, you need to check each memory module individually with the program MemTest.

To do this, you will only need a flash drive of any size, even 512 MB if you have one lying around.

Solution 2: If you have Windows 7, 2008 and a large hard drive

On the Russian Internet, there is very little information about error 0x0000007A ( KERNEL DATA INPAGE ERROR), therefore, we looked at how this error is solved abroad.

It turned out that in the English-language knowledge base of a well-known corporation, there is an article under number KB977178.

We came across it quite by accident while studying an American forum.

The point of the article is this:

A well-known corporation is aware of this problem. The problem occurs if you have a large hard drive installed, from 1 terabyte(maybe less). When entering and exiting hibernation mode, you get a blue screen of death BSOD with stop error 0x0000007A, 0x00000077, or 0x000000F4.

The fact is that when exiting hibernation mode, the disk is given 10 seconds. Large disks require more than these 10 seconds, which is why Windows generates BSOD.

It is possible that other similar factors may use this 10 second threshold, which leads to an error.

The problem is that this fix cannot be downloaded without requesting Microsoft support. We managed to download the file Windows6.1-KB977178-x64.msu from one of the file hosting services abroad. This file is only suitable for Windows 7, 2008 x64.

For now, we are not sure about the safety of this file, the name and size are different from the original, so there will be no link to it. We'll try to check it soon.
