    Bsod driver_power_state_failure


    Hello. I have been experiencing rather frequent BSOD over the last few days. The first few happened as I was transferring data from one HDD to the other. The latest one happened while clicking a link. That's when I got the Driver power state failure error message. Thanks for any help in advance.

    EDIT: Also, I ran memtest86 and did a SFC /scannow, no errors returned.

    I configured my computer to create a small dump, but I can't find it. I don't know if it's been included with the zip I've included in this post. Thanks for any assistance.

    Ask him to free up the startup, take a camera snap of the blue screen and upload it, and ......
    Upload the list of all the third party drivers Using NirSoft DriverView :

    • Download and execute Driverview
    • View > Hide Microsoft Drivers
    • Edit > Select all
    • File > Save Selected Items
    • In the Save dialog, Set the path to desktop, Put "Driverview" in the name field, and save.
    • Zip the .txt file and upload it.
    these will provide some sort of information. :)
