    DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE when computer is idle for a period


    Sometimes when I leave my computer on while I go do some other stuff I'll come back to see my computer is off and I had an BSOD. This is happening for a couple months now on and off, it only seems to happen if my computer is idle for to long and goes into sleep mode. According to the minidump and WhoCrashed the BSOD is caused by ntoskrnl.exe but I couldn't find out by what driver exactly this problem is being caused. See the minidump down below for more info. I would appreciate any suggestions of help on this issue.

    Thank you very much,

    Run Display Driver Uninstaller in safemode. Display Driver Uninstaller Download version 13.5.2.0 Click on your Graphics card and then Press Clean and restart.
    After that goto your manufacture website and download your manufacturer graphic drivers again. If it is a custom PC goto your graphics card manufacturer website and download it there. The BSOD should have been fixed. Report if something happens. That helped me when i had DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE.

Hi there, I normally leave my computer on overnight so I could do things such as defragging, virus scans and sometimes downloading. I'm running Windows 7 Ultimate x64, which I installed 3 days ago as I got a new hard drive. The system was blue screening since then, so I'm guessing it's not a...
