Disabled page file, bad results

I disabled the page file (I don't know what I was thinking). Now Windows won't start! I've tried every safe mode there is. At one point I could get into the login screen, without video. I'm getting stop errors like "NONPAGED_FILE" or something. Anyone know how I can get my computer running again?

PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA is the error.

(I know this belong in software, but I seriously need help here)

Stop error is 0x000000A5

Says something about ACPI and needing to reflash my bios. I'm certain that it isn't the problem. How do I fix it? *extremely frustrated*

I have gottin this error before, but not with disabling the page file. You should never do that. I gottin this error before when I had defective RAM in my PC. Put in a new stick and I was fine. Certinitely not your case though.

It was my video card. I got a 0x50 stop error and it said something about my video adapter.
