The DISORDERLY_SHUTDOWN bug check has a value of 0x000000F3. This indicates that Windows was unable to shut down due to lack of memory.

Important

Cause

Windows attempted to shut down, but there were no free pages available to continue operations.

Because applications were not terminated and drivers were not unloaded, they continued to access pages even after the modified writer had terminated. This causes the system to run out of pages, since the page files could be used.
