    DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE 0x0000009f


    Hi,

    I only ever get this BSOD when I run a backup to a Toshiba 1TB external USB drive. The script is set to shut down the PC when it has finished backing up. Mostly that works fine, but, maybe 20% of the time, I come back to find this BSOD, which occurs at shutdown, not during the running of the script.

    I know that this BSOD is usually due to an external USB device and that re-installing drivers should fix it. But what drivers do I need to install? It's just a P&P device, there were no drivers to install of course. Maybe the BIOS (chipset) drivers for my PC? Or is it a Power managemnt problem??

    If I run the script, then remove the USB HDD (via the system tray icon) before shutting down, I don't get a BSOD. Also, the BSOD never used to happen, it's only the past few months that it has occurred.

    Thanks.

Hello the last 3 BSOD's have all been caused by the same service or driver. I don't know which program is the troubleshooter but I'd like to find out as you might imagine. :p I'm also curious to find out what is causing the 0x0000003b error.

Greetings, Having an issue with the BSOD occurring after waking PC from sleep mode.

Have been getting these BSOD since the time I bought my laptop 7 months ago. Can't say that there's any particular reason or condition for them to appear. Most cases are when I use the internet ( skype,torrents,just browsing) or leave my computer still, never while playing games. Had Win7 x64 at...
