Hi Arc,

I havent explored that way .... but if you want, I may.
But there is a chance, it seems to be a OEM key on a retail motherboard.

In between, disable sleep/hibernate. It is not very required for desktop computers, but it will minimize the possibility for a driver power state failure.

If it occurs even with sleep disabled, we have to think differently.

Hi Arc,

Everything is working well now, I think, after disabling sleep but I need it for my work, it's hard to explain but I need it.

If you have time, I would be very grateful if you can check if the OS is failing.

Thanks!

No, apparently the OS is not failing.

A stop 0x9F is a situation where a PnP device driver fails to react within a stipulated time, when the power state is changing (sleep/hibernation to wake up or the reverse).

Code:

A driver has failed to complete a power IRP within a specific time.

Code:

Arg1: 0000000000000003, A device object has been blocking an Irp for too long a time
Arg2: fffffa8009a48060, Physical Device Object of the stack
Arg3: fffff80000b9a3d8, nt!TRIAGE_9F_POWER on Win7 and higher, otherwise the Functional Device Object of the stack
Arg4: fffffa80093f2b10, The blocked IRP

Why the power IRP is not being completed within the required time? Because it is blocked by a device object. Let us see what is it.

Code:

Device object (fffffa800ab68050) is for:
 InfoMask field not found for _OBJECT_HEADER at fffffa800ab68020
 \Driver\AX88772B DriverObject fffffa8008437d70
Current Irp 00000000 RefCount 0 Type 00000017 Flags 00002050
DevExt fffffa800ab681a0 DevObjExt fffffa800ab698c0 
ExtensionFlags (0x00000800)  DOE_DEFAULT_SD_PRESENT
Characteristics (0x00000100)  FILE_DEVICE_SECURE_OPEN
AttachedTo (Lower) fffffa8009883cf0 \Driver\ACPI

So it is clearly stated that it is the ASIX AX88772B device, which troubles during sleep (ACPI).

Unfortunately you are choosing unstable network adapters one by one.

A Qualcomm Atheros one (USB, PCI or PCIe) may change the situation there, IMHO.

Hi Arc,

Thanks for that thorough explanation. I'll buy a new Network Card then according to your advice.

Thank you so much!
