blue screen saying: 'fault_in_nonpaged area'

Hi, I'm having trouble with my computer and as I'm pretty hopeless with computers I came here for help.

The problem I'm having is, that when I log into windows everything will startup, but then after a couple of minutes, the screen will freeze before a blue screen comes up with an error message and the computer restarts. After it restarts, I can only log into safe mode. As the blue screen only lasts for a few seconds, I took a picture of it so I could read it:

It started yesterday afternoon, but after I left the computer turned off overnight, I could briefly log into windows again before I got the blue screen.

Something that might be useful to you is that a couple of weeks ago I was also having problems. Occasionally, the monitor would say: 'monitor going to sleep' and turn off. I then ran some antivirus scans and found lots of viruses and adware on the computer. After I deleted the viruses it seemed to all work fine. So whether the problem I have now is related to viruses or not I don't know but I've ran scans in safe mode now and nothing was found.

If theres any way you could help me solve this problem I would greatly appreciate it.

Anything that has to do with the BSOD should stay here. Everything will be in one place and easy to find.

Heres the zip file with some of the information. However when I tried to run perfmon / report, I got this error message: 'the system cannot find the path specified'.

First it is very difficult to find THE solution on the basis of one BSOD. In your case it said that it was due to the graphics driver.
nvlddmkm.sys

Update and post any new BSODs that you receive.

Go to the website and update driver.

Nvlddmkm.sys file description
Productname: NVIDIA Windows Kernel Mode Driver, Version 194.94
Description: NVIDIA Windows Kernel Mode Driver, Version 194.94
Company: NVIDIA Corporation

In addition update this driver. A known BSOD maker
ASACPI ASACPI.sys Wed Oct 18 01:44:46 2006

Asacpi.sys is a driver from the Austek Computer Corp. Your driver is very old and is known to cause BSOD's in current Windows versions; it must be updated
