Kernel-Power (Event ID: 41)

Hi all.
Laterly I've been having trouble with my computer crashing, but not rebooting straight away. To restart the computer I have to manually turn the PC off by the power switch.

After checking the event viewer I have found that each time the computer has crashed there is a log for "Kernel-Power" with Event ID: 41.

Hi Chris and welcome


event ID 41 is basically a timeout waiting for a device to respond. If we had the actual DMP file we might be able to tell you which. there is both a description and several fixes here Event ID 41 Source WinMgmt

Also you can use these to find upload the dmp file. https://www.sevenforums.com/crash-loc...d-problem.html

Hi.
Thank you for you quick reply. The thread that you directed me to asks to locate Windows/Minidump file - I do not seem to have this file?
