Multiple BSOD's: driver_power_state_failure

[eternalstudent]

Hey there - every few nights or so, I leave my laptop running overnight and wake up to a BSOD that reads drive_power_state_failure. I've attached the three zipped .dmp files. Any help would be hugely appreciated!

Welcome

The bug check you're getting is usually caused by a device driver. Found information looking deeper at your dumps.

So in such a case we'll enable verifier, leave it enabled for 36 hours and give us all the dumps you get in these hours.

STOP 0x0000009F: DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE 
Usual causes:  Device driver
BugCheck 1000009F, {4, 258, fffffa8003cdd660, fffff80000b9c3d0}
Probably caused by : ntkrnlmp.exe ( nt!KiSwapContext+7a )

Thanks, I really appreciate it. I just loaded it and my laptop has crashed twice already. Will report back in a few days.

 

[koolkat77]

OK, keep us posted

 

[eternalstudent]

I had five today and had to disable the verifier to get some work done. I've attached the dump files from this morning. I'll re-enable and post more in a few days.

Alright.

So all the BSODs were caused by your onboard graphics drivers.

Update them from Intel Download Center

Unfortunately I just did last night - it had been fine after I updated my drivers. I've attached the minidump zip.

 

[koolkat77]

Uninstall Microsoft Security Essentials completely. Download and reinstall afresh.

Make a full scan.

Update all network drivers.

Post back results.

 

[eternalstudent]

Did as you said, except I ran into a problem with the Microsoft Virtual WiFI Miniport Adapter & Adapter #2. Both are not up to date, but when I allow it to search online for updates, I get the "Windows can't verify the publisher of this driver software..." message.

I was unable to find anything online to confirm it's safe. Any suggestions?

Again, I really appreciate you taking the time to help.

Run this, check the system for updates:

• Intel® Driver Update Utility

*Needs Java*
