  1. Blue Screen persists after clean install


    My computer has been plagued with frequent BSODs 'DRIVER POWER STATE FAILURE' for past many days and decided to do a clean install but it didnt help and I saw 2 BSODs with same error code. Nothing specific I had installed to trigger these, as I am using similar config on another comp without any scares so far.Pl assisthttps://1drv.ms/u/s!AjzPww442dZ4gSa2-QdUpdA4rB4v?e=Pyxp2h

    Blue Screen

    Hi,





    Blue screens could be caused by problems with your computer’s hardware or with its driver. Still, we
    would like to know more about the issue. Please clarify the following:

    • Did you get a STOP code?
    • Did you install any hardware or driver recently?



    For basic troubleshooting steps to resolve blue screen errors, we suggest checking out this

  3. Clean Install Workaround for Vista

    You may remember this news story on techPowerUp! a couple of days ago relating to the lack of clean installs when using the Upgrade Editions of Vista, which required an old OS to be installed. However, Paul Thurrott has managed to find a workaround for this issue, which ironically lets users do a clean install Vista without any previous version of Windows, albeit a little tedious. Here are the steps:
    • Boot from the Windows Vista Upgrade DVD as normal
    • When prompted for a product code, leave this blank
    • Select the version of Vista you have purchased and let Vista install
    • When you boot to your desktop for the first time, run the Vista setup from Windows
    • This time enter your product key
    • When asked whether you want to do an Upgrade of Custom install, select custom and choose a clean install
    • Windows will now install for a second time and you should be able to activate it
    Remember, these steps are only advised for use in order to achieve a clean install of Vista, it is only legal to use the upgrade editions if you have previously purchased the appropriate version of Windows.

    The tutorials provided are just a list of troubleshooting steps. Use only the steps which apply to you.

    Since none of the troubleshooting steps here worked, I'd suggest you do a Clean install.
