DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FALIURE

About 2 weeks after I installed windows 11 (which was about a month ago) I started randomly getting BSoDs with the error code DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FALIURE. I always have had regular BSoDs that would happen about once a week with error codes such as MEMORY_MANAGEMENT or UNEXPECTED_STORE_EXCEPTION. These would only happen when I turn on my laptop (An Acer Nitro 5). These BSoDs stopped for the 2 weeks after I installed windows 11 and then came on with the new one. The DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FALIURE BSoDs happen randomly when I'm using the computer and when I'm about to get one the fans start spinning really quickly and loudly and the computer freezes.

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.
