Windows 10: Bluescreen after updating to 24h2

Hi,Just had a random bluescreen after updating to 24h2 a few days ago. Was watching a YouTube video in Firefox and after closing the window, saw a bunch of small black boxes all over my desktop and then bluescreened a couple seconds later. Haven't experienced a bluescreen in windows in probably about a decade. I have a crash dump that I can provide.Thanks

:)

bluescreen

Hi,

Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community.

I understand that it can be frustrating for you when the computer shows bluescreen errors. Bluescreen errors are usually caused due to faulty hardware or drivers. We will try to narrow down the cause of the issue by performing a few steps.

1. Do you get bluescreen errors randomly or while performing any specific actions such as playing a game or running any particular application?
   
2. Do you see any error code along with the message “DRIVERS POWER STATE FAILURE”?
   
3. Are there any external devices connected to your computer?
   

The usual causes for bluescreen errors are Graphic card drivers and Network adapter drivers. We can go ahead and try to update the drivers.

Refer the article Update drivers in Windows 10 on how to update Graphic card
and Network drivers.

You may also refer the article Troubleshoot blue screen errors
for additional troubleshooting steps to fix the issue.

Hope it helps.
