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.

You can reply to this post if you need further assistance

Hope it helps.

Bluescreen due to bug check, may be due to bad driver?

Hi,

There are several reasons which can cause this error on your system. One of these is a third party program that isn't fully compatible with Windows 10.

To isolate the concern, we suggest that you launch your computer on Clean Boot.

Clean Boot temporarily disables all third party applications as well as all Microsoft non-essential services so only
basic drivers will run. This will help us find any third-party software which can be the cause of this issue.



Here are the steps:

• 
  From
  Start, search for msconfig
  
• 
  Select
  System Configuration
  from the search results.
  
• 
  On the Services tab of the System Configuration dialog box, tap or click to select the
  Hide all Microsoft services
  check box, and then tap or click
  Disable all.
  
• 
  On the Startup tab of the System Configuration dialog box, tap or click Open
  Task Manager.
  
• 
  On the Startup tab in Task Manager, for each startup item, select the item and then click
  Disable.
  
• 
  Close Task Manager.
  
• 
  On the Startup tab of the System Configuration dialog box, tap or click
  OK, and then restart the computer.
  

Keep us updated with the result.
