Hi. After upgrading from win7 to win8 pro, i get this error/bsod every time i shutdown the pc: "page fault in nonpaged area (applecharger.sys)".

I do not believe it is a hardware thing as i have had no problems whatsoever with win7 and after upgrading to win8 i run a checkdisk on all drives. My main hdd is a ocz ssd and i have an hdd for backups! Also, i have updated all the drivers/bios for win8 for my gigabyte mobo (model Z68A-D3H-B3). I have seen on google there is a  lot of this problem going on, but without solutions yet.

Any help is appreciated!

I fixed it on my computer. I uninstalled a program called ON/OFF and that fixed it. 

ON/OFF is a Gigabyte program that uses applecharger.sys for Apple connections.

I hope that helps.

    Hello,

    I deleted the 2 folders manually Gigabyte onoff charger (applecharger.sys) and i still have the same issue on windows 10. i can only turn off the computer successfully with the switch button only.

    Otherwise it always restart my computer showing the error applecharger.sys error !!

    Microsoft can you find a fix to this issue please? Maybe an automatic fix? it would be great?

    Thank you.

    try deleting it by using the uninstall program feature. doing it manually might have left a few things behind. just a thought.

    Deleting files is not enough. You have to uninstall with the installation CD.
