    BSOD - DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE, ntoskrnl.exe


    I am getting random BSODs over the last two days. Most of the time I was away from the computer, but today was the first time I got a BSOD while using the computer. I built this rig around September 5th, 2011 and installed Windows 7 x64 Ultimate at that time.

    Specs
    i5 2500K
    8 GB RAM
    GTX 570
    M4 120 GB SSD (OS)
    Samsung 1 TB HDD

    No Memtest errors, all drivers are up to date, ran a sfc scan. No errors.

    No DMP files included in upload please try this method


    We do need the DMP file as it contains the only record of the sequence of events leading up to the crash, what drivers were loaded, and what was responsible.

    You may be able to get the DMP files without crashing by booting into safe mode (F8) with networking.

    To enable us to assist you with your computer's BSOD symptoms, upload the contents of your "\Windows\Minidump" folder.

    The procedure:

    * Copy the contents of \Windows\Minidump to another (temporary) location somewhere on your machine.
    * Zip up the copy.
    * Attach the ZIP archive to your post using the "paperclip" (file attachments) button.
    *If the files are too large please upload them to a file sharing service like "Rapidshare" and put a link to them in your reply.


    To ensure minidumps are enabled:

    * Go to Start, in the Search Box type: sysdm.cpl, press Enter.
    * Under the Advanced tab, click on the Startup and Recovery Settings... button.
    * Ensure that Automatically restart is unchecked.
    * Under the Write Debugging Information header select Small memory dump (256 kB) in the dropdown box (the 256kb varies).
    * Ensure that the Small Dump Directory is listed as %systemroot%\Minidump.
    * OK your way out.
    * Reboot if changes have been made.
