    Blue Screen: Event 41, Kernel-Power

    So, I've been dealing with this issue where my laptop keeps getting a blue screen with the error nvlddmkm.sys. It's really frustrating because I was almost done with my work and then suddenly the laptop just turns blue screen on me. I checked the Event Viewer, and it shows Event 41, Kernel-Power, and Event 125, Kernel-Power. I've already updated Windows, uninstalled and reinstalled the graphics driver, and even changed the thermal paste (even though my laptop doesn't get that hot, especially compared to when I'm playing games).



    Here are my laptop specifications:

    - Windows 11

    - GTX 1050

    - Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-7700HQ CPU @ 2.80GHz

    - 24GB RAM

    - Nvidia GTX 1050



    Any ideas on how to fix this annoying blue screen problem?

    Event Viewer - Kernel Power 41 - Bluescreen Timeline

    I am trying to debug a bluescreen I've been having.

    I am looking through event viewer and I believe I've narrowed down potential events related to the crash, but I need a reference point so I can refer to the timestamps on the events.

    Kernel Power 41 is within this list.

    When does the Kernel Power 41 Error occur in the span of a BSOD?

    Is it logged to event viewer after rebooting from a bluescreen? Does it occur the moment a BSOD finishes collecting errors? Or does it occur at a different time?

    Additionally, are there any events that can act as reference points in the timeline of a bluescreen? Does event viewer even log events during a bluescreen's "collecting" phase?

    Thanks.

    Kernel-Power event id 41. BugcheckCode 0

    Hello,

    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

    In-order to get more clarity on this issue and to assist you with appropriate troubleshooting steps, reply with answers to the below questions:

    1. Are you aware of any changes made on your PC, prior to this issue?
    2. Is this issue specific while playing a particular game?
    3. Which edition of Windows are you currently using?

    A Kernel Power Event 41 can occur in the following scenarios.

    Scenario 1: The computer restarts, and there is a Stop error BugcheckCode in the event data.

    Scenario 2: The computer is shut down by pressing and holding the power button.

    Scenario 3: The system randomly restarts and no Stop error BugcheckCode is listed, or the computer is completely unresponsive (hard hang).

    I suggest you refer the article on Kernel
    Power Event ID 41     and follow the steps for the scenario that is causing this error on your PC.

    Additionally, you can refer the article on Windows
    Kernel event ID 41 error "The system has rebooted without cleanly shutting down first" in Windows
    and check if that helps.

    Regards,

    Sandeep Kumar M
