    Hello everyone,My computer has been sporadically showing a blue display with the code DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE. Before this happens, the keyboard and mouse stops working for a few seconds and then the blue display comes. This has never happened to me before and I don't know what to do. I've read a bunch of solutions on this board and have yet to find a solution that works for me. I tried everything on this thread Help with Blue Screen "Driver Power State Failure" - Microsoft Community. Yet still, nothing seems to work yet.Can someone help me out?System Model HP EliteBook 840 G8 Notebook PC S

    Is there any remedy for DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE other than reinstalling Windows?

    Hello,

    This DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE failure has been with me for several months now.

    It occurs suddenly during normal operation. The signs that it occured are:

    1. WiFi turns off without any possibility to troubleshoot
    2. USB PnP service turns OFF (but external HDDs that were connected before failure remain accessible)
    3. The shutdown continues for about 5 minutes before a "blue screen" appears with the announcement DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE.
    4. When restarting Windows, WiFi needs troubleshooting: Troubleshooter resets WiFi
    Any suggestions ?

    Thanks.

    Windows 10 BSOD - DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE

    Hi,



    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



    I understand that you are receiving Blue Screen error with DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE on your computer. I’ll certainly assist you with the issue.



    However, please let us know:



    • When exactly do you receive the Blue Screen error?
    • Are you aware of any changes made to the computer recently?
    • Which build version of Windows 10 is installed on the computer? To check type:
      winver in the search bar on the Taskbar and hit
      Enter.
    • What is the make and model of the computer?


    I have tried to access the link for dump files shared by you. However, I was unable to access the link. I would suggest you to upload the files in OneDrive and share the link.



    The DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE error occurs when the driver is in an inconsistent or invalid power state. You may want to refer the troubleshooting steps mentioned in the Remarks section of the
    article Bug Check 0x9F: DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE
    and see if that helps.



    Note: Modifying BIOS/ complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) settings incorrectly can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from booting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that any problems resulting
    from the configuring of BIOS/CMOS settings can be solved. Modifications of the settings are at your own risk.



    You may also want to refer the steps mentioned in the article Troubleshoot
    blue screen errors
    .



    We await your response.
