Hello, I'm new to these forums, but I have also participated in others. Hopefully you can be of help to me.

I recently bought crysis. I installed it and after playing for 15 or so minutes I recieve a BSOD stating "KERNEL_DATA_INPAGE_ERROR" at the bottom most of the time it says:
"0x0000007A (0xC05D3CD8, 0xC0000185, 0xBA79B078, 0x6EEF2860)
ACPI.sys Address BA79B078 Base at BA779000 Datestamp 41107d27"
*codes are one example of what I recieved, I may not necessarily recieve the same ones every time.

I also recieve one stating ftdisk.sys, or simply nothing at all, instead of ACPI.sys, but those arent as common. I have recieved probably 2-4 in all my time playing oblivion (20+ hours - and still lots left to do). I don't get them in games like BF2, BF2142, Sims 2, or SimCity 4. This is what I've tried so far:

I have run memtest86+ overnight twice.
I've broken my raid 0 array, because I thought it was the controller,
I've eased up on my processor OC (see bottom for specs)
I've reduced MCP & SPP to x4 instead of x5.
My computer is stable overnight for 2 instances of prime95
No problems POSTing or booting linux or XP after BSOD or any other times

Voltages according to nVidia Monitor:
CPU: 1.4437
Memory: 2.0
FSB: 1.4
PCI-E: 1.45
nForce:1.5
AUX:1.5
HT(SPP-MCP): 1.2

Temps:
CPU: 38C idle 50C?? load
System: 25C
GPU: 63C idle ????? load

eVGA 680i mobo, E6300 C2D @ 2.88GHz, Kingston HyperX DDR2-800, 8800GTS, Antec TP3 650W, 2 x 250Gb WD Caviar, Arctic Cooling 7 Pro.

Sorry for the super long post, just trying to get you guys as much info about my situation as possible, because I've run out of ideas. ACPI.sys is the power management for the OS isn't it? Do I have to get a new PSU? I don't have another one to test if mine is faulty. I have the latest BIOS and Drivers, and XP on one HDD and Ubuntu 7.04 on the other. Thanks a ton for any help. I really appreciate it, I've had it with this!
 
For 0x7a, the second parameter usually tells you what the problem is.

0xC0000185 STATUS_IO_DEVICE_ERROR, caused by improper termination or bad
cabling on SCSI devices.

I'm going to assume you don't have SCSI drives, I don't think it will help but try switching your optical drive cables or disconnecting the drives entirely temporarily.
 
I've tried using different cables for both sata drives, as well as switching their sata ports on the mobo. today, my windows drive passed the windows check disk utility w/ no errors.

Optical drive cables? like switch my master and slave cd\dvd drives? (I have 2 on my only ide connection)
 
Yes, I mean just disconnect the CD/DVD drives temporarily or disconnect 1 or the other if you need one and see if it stops. I'm not sure if it will help or not. ACPI is mainly power management but it does other things. If you get 0x7A again check the 2nd parameter and see if it's 0xC0000185 again or something else.
Code: 
Value        Meaning
----------   -------
0xC0000008   STATUS_INVALID_HANDLE , an invalid HANDLE was specified.

0xC000009A   STATUS_INSUFFICIENT_RESOURCES, caused by lack of non-paged
             pool.

0xC000009C   STATUS_DEVICE_DATA_ERROR, generally due to bad block on the
             drive.

0xC000009D   STATUS_DEVICE_NOT_CONNECTED, bad or loose cabling,
             termination, or controller not seeing drive.

0xC000016A   STATUS_DISK_OPERATION_FAILED, also caused by bad block
             on the drive.

0xC0000185   STATUS_IO_DEVICE_ERROR, caused by improper termination or bad
             cabling on SCSI devices.

ftdisk.sys is the fault tolerant system driver (RAID) but it also sends bad sector info to the filesystem so it can remap it. The other thing you could try is scanning your hard drive(s) for bad sectors
