For what it's worth...I have an Averatec 3200 series laptop that get's a
paging error on reboot. I only noticed this behavior in Windows XP Pro
and pieced together the scenario that made the problem reproduce. The
Averatec when it is put into sleep or hibernate has problems with the
Windows paging file when it wakes up. I think the paging operation is
invalidated most likely due to the time discrepancy between suspending
and then re-awakening. If your laptop only has this problem after
sleeping that might be your issue too. I think this is probably a
hardware issue rather than software (on the Averatec system).
