    Power plan?

    Upon checking, it seems that there's nothing wrong with your system. It is usual that you have to double-click your mouse before your monitor wakes up.

    For the meantime, we suggest changing the power plan by following the steps below:

    • Press Windows key + S.
    • Type in Power Settings.
    • On the pop-up window, choose Additional power settings.
    • Select High performance.

    After changing the power plan, we suggest that you monitor the changes made and check if that will work for you.

    Get back to us if you need further help.

    Laptop won`t shutdown, Driver Power State Failure WIN10

    I made an another clean install of windows 10, disabled everything, didn`t install any update or any device. Started shutting down pc for testing.

    First 7 times it shutdown perfectly under 10 seconds, then I tried restart, then shutdown again, shutdown time increased to 3-5 minutes. But no error was given, no power drive state failure.

    After that, I installed windows update, now I'm getting Power drive state failure error, and I found the minidump, here is the link;

    Microsoft OneDrive - Access files anywhere. Create docs with free Office Online.

    Thank you very much for your time.
