Windows 10: Help with computer blue screening with error Driver_Power_State_Failure

Hi, I am asking for assistance with my laptop, every time when i hibernate it after maybe 3 or so hours it blue screens with a message saying Driver_Power_State_Failure, it's really annoying as it restarts every once in a while and that i lose all my work that i am working on locally. I have currently tried updating all the drivers and it doesn't work. I have seen others on this forum with the same problem and it gets solved by them giving their crash output or something.Any help will be appreciated.Thanks

:)

 

Blue screen error: DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE

Hi,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



I understand that you receive DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE Blue screen error. The DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE bug check has a value of 0x0000009F. This bug check indicates that the driver is in an inconsistent or invalid power state. For more information,
see
Bug Check 0x9F: DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE.



However, it would be great if you can share the Minidump files with us, so that we can analyze them and assist you accordingly. To share the dump files, navigate to
C:\Windows\Minidump, upload the files to OneDrive and share the OneDrive link.



Meanwhile, I suggest you to try booting the computer into Safe Mode and see if you are able to boot the computer into Safe Mode. Refer the steps mentioned in the article

Start your PC in safe mode in Windows 10.



If you are able to boot the computer into Safe Mode with Networking, try performing clean boot on the computer and see if the computer boots.



Performing a clean boot will start the computer with minimal set of drivers and programs, to determine whether a background program is causing the issue. Some of the Startup programs will not load after performing a clean boot on the computer. However,
that functionality will return when you reset the computer to start normally after finishing the troubleshooting.



To perform a clean boot on the computer refer to the article How to perform a
clean boot in Windows.



If performing a clean boot fixes the issue then, please refer to the section
How to determine what is causing the problem after you do a clean boot
to check which program is causing the issue.



Note: Please refer the section Reset the computer to start normally after clean boot troubleshooting
to boot the computer in to normal mode after troubleshooting.

Let us know the results.

getting blue screen error/Stop Code

Hi Abhijit,

Stop code: DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE is probably due to a compatibility issue with the driver, as most blue screen errors are. Since you encountered this error after updating Windows, most probably, you would need to update the drivers
as well.

We suggest that you go through the steps in this article on how to troubleshoot blue screen errors.
On step 1, select After an update was installed.

Kindly update us on the results.
