DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE Npfs.SYS

Hello,

My pc was in sleep mode or was going into sleep mode or turned on from sleep mode.

I don't know. Was watching tv. The point is it happened when I wasn't doing anything on the pc.

Attached is the zip file with all the info. :)


However I feel something must have gone wrong because the file is empty? I don't know. Tried it again and file is empty again.

The most crucial file to find out what happened I did attach below it. The minidump.

I think you know it, Matt.

Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) Posting Instructions

I do and I tried running the tool but it didn't work. Still I provided the mini dump is this not enough to debug the situation?

No, not enough.

Try it: SF Diagnostic Tool - Using for Troubleshooting

Alright here it is:

The crash dump is blaming Avira for the BSOD. It says .....

I would suggest you to Uninstall Avira using Avira AntiVir Removal Tool. Use Microsoft Security Essentials as your antivirus with windows inbuilt firewall, and free MBAM as the on demand scanner.

Report us for any further BSOD after doing it.
