    Latest GeForce driver update 358.50 causes BSOD


    My computer BSOD'd this morning Had to roll back GeForce driver.

    Anyone having BSOD in the past few days & recently updated GeForce driver may want to know. Many others are experiencing same.

    Code:
    BSOD caused by ntoskrnl.exe error
    
    DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE (9f)
    A driver is causing an inconsistent power state.
    Arguments:
    Arg1: 0000000000000003, A device object has been blocking an Irp for too long a time
    Arg2: fffffa8009d12060, Physical Device Object of the stack
    Arg3: fffff80000b9a518, Functional Device Object of the stack
    Arg4: fffffa800b986250, The blocked IRP

    I quit updating GeForce drivers early this year, didn't see the reason since i play no games. Most of the updates seem to be for gaming specifics. Shouda stuck with that & left it alone.
    So my roll back went all the way back to 347.25.

    Nice to see you ThrashZone. I mostly roll on the tenforums now. You know Win 7 machine never has any problems.

    That snip of a dump doesn't show anything relating to an nVidia driver.

    Hi,
    Yep 7 rules
    I do wonder which driver windows updates provides :/

    GeForce and also RealTek has gone freaking mad with driver releases so most have to be targeted at win-10 and messing up 7 in the process

    I uninstalled GeForce experience a while back after I had to use it to activate batman ackham knight.

    I am a beginner at this Dump analysis stuff & was unable to determine which driver was at fault but since I just updated the GeForce driver last night & several users experiencing same on GeForce forums it seemed logical. Before you ask, I already deleted the dump Roll back appears to have corrected BSOD.

    I too almost uninstalled GeForce exp earlier this year & went with the driver from WU. In fact it was in my hidden updates but is no longer. Probably disappeared a few months ago when I reinstalled WU. Because of all that KB2952664 business, multiple instances of. Remember I jacked up WU trying to hide all those WinX upgrade updates. Similar to what's happening with KB3035583 right now.

    347.25 worked fine for 9 months. If you don't mind where did you pick up that info?

    thanks
