Page Fault in Non Page Area
OK... in a fit of "I'm going to clean all the old junk off my computer"... I accidently started to remove something connected to ATI. Then the computer froze.
Now when I try to reboot I get the blue screen with the Page Fault in Non Page Area message.
I have tried a System Restore but that did not help.
I can start in safe mode.
What do I do now? Please talk to me in "Baby Computer" language!

Since you didn't say, I'm going to assume XP and move it here.

Try Start, Run, SFC /SCANNOW

Yes, I am running XP media edition.
ATI Radeon x300 video adapter. (I think that is what I messed up)
I have tried downloading new drivers from internet, but no matter what I load it tells me I don't have the right hardware for it.
I have tried system restore.

I did that SFC /SCANNOW... it flashed a black box for about a half second and then nothing.

After that happened, you should have seen an orange bar in your Taskbar and if you clicked on it, you would see a dialogue box telling you the scan is running. You might need to put your Windows XP CD in for any missing files to be replaced from that.
