BSOD 0x0000009F Sleep/Wake Laptop
Hopefully I've titled this correctly and used the SF_Diagnostic tool right, as this is my first reaching out for help on Seven Forums. So here goes:
I'm getting BSOD's on a Samsung NP535U4C-S02CA Laptop running Windows 7 x64 Ultimate, usually when it tries to enter sleep mode, occasionally upon waking, and as of yesterday, once when the system was simply idling while I was watching 24. Now, the laptop was running Windows 8, but I reverted to Windows 7 because everything I do on this computer is run in applications on the desktop.
Since installing Windows 7 however, I have been getting 0x0000009F BSOD's, related to DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE, which I, at first, believed was simply caused by not having the correct chipset/ACPI drivers installed as this was a vanilla install of Windows 7. I proceeded to get all the drivers installed that Samsung offered for my laptop and even went as far as getting an updated WiFi/Bluetooth Stack from Qualcomm/Atheros in case that was the issue.
As you'll see in the logs, and the picture below, the BSOD's have been quite sporadic. Sometimes I can close the lid of my laptop and it enters sleep no problem. Other times it hangs, and enters sleep after a LONG TIME, close to 6 or 7 minutes. I know computers need to flush things to memory/hard drives, but I've never had a computer take longer than 2-3 mins to enter sleep. Other times I've found that unplugging it from power before closing the lid has helped, but sometimes it still hangs. So I don't think that's going to help us determine the issue.
Very rarely it will resume from sleep, powering on the fan/screen/lights, but nothing ever shows up on the display. The screen lights up as if it's going to come on, and it will either hang there until I hard-reset it, or until it reboots on it's own, usually caused by a BSOD.
Let me know what you make of this, and if and where I can get updated drivers, as Samsung's latest date back to 2012, and attempting to get drivers from AMD result in a message stating "incompatible hardware/software" when running their updater, which makes no sense as EVERYTHING in this laptop is based off an AMD Trinity APU platform. USB, Video, SATA, North/South Bridge chipsets, ACPI, etc. All in all, I think this is gonna be fun to sort out, and appreciate all the help I can get.
