Driver Used Excessive PTES Stop Code 0X000000D8

  Page Table Entries (PTEs) are used to map RAM as it is divided into
page frames by the Virtual Memory Manager (VMM). This error usually means that Windows has run out of PTEs. Aside from the usual assortment of faulty drivers and services that can cause all sorts of problems, this error can also occur if you’re using

Multiple Monitors
If you find that you’re experiencing this error often, you can increase
Windows’ allocation of PTEs with this procedure:

  • Open the Registry Editor - click start - run - and type in "regedit" then click ok
  • Then expand the branches to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\
    CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Memory Management.
  • Double-click the PagedPoolSize value, enter 0 for its value data, and click OK.
  • Next, double-click the SystemPages value. If you’re using multiple monitors, enter a value of 36000 here. Otherwise, enter 40000 if you have 128 MB of system RAM or less, or 110000 if you have more than 128 MB of RAM.
  • Click OK and then close the Registry Editor when you’re done. The change will take effect when you restart Windows.
