BSOD Driver_power_state_failure

[ClausCh]

Hey
Earlier today i had a BSOD while my laptop was shutting down.
It's 4-5 months old and came with Windows 7 64 bit pre-installed, however its only a few days ago since i ran OS recovery and reinstalled windows.

I recently tried virtualization with VMware player and i got a feeling that it is the cause of the problem but i'm not sure.

Thanks

Hello,

Start be installing these updated ATI drivers: ATI Catalyst
Your current ones are a bit old:

atipmdag.sys     Fri Dec 11 15:33:38 2009 (4B22ACA2)

Also install the following drivers; links are to the right.

Remove Threatfire with this tool: http://www.threatfire.com/files/RemoveThreatFire(3.0).zip

Replace it with MSE: http://www.microsoft.com/security_essentials

NSNetmon.sys     Wed Nov 03 17:34:55 2010 (4CD1D57F)

Now there is a good chance this is caused by hardware, so it may pay to run some diagnostics. Start by running a RAM test: http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/105647-ram-test-memtest86.html
