Windows 10: BSOD/crashes occur when computer sleeps

Which adapter does rtwlane refer to? Both the Ethernet and Wi-Fi adapters are Realtek. When rtwlane was mentioned previously I thought it meant the Ethernet driver. If so that driver is up to date and its not even used since I run on Wi-Fi. The Ethernet driver (all of them in fact) was reinstalled when I Refreshed the computer so no reason to do that again. I could disable it completely and see if that makes a difference.

If its referring to the Wi-Fi adapter driver, before the refresh I updated that driver and it didn't help, still got crashes. I have not done the BIOS update. Do you know which adapter rtwlane is referring to?

See post #15 "rtwlane.sys is the RealTek NIC/Wired - Realtek PCI-E Wireless LAN NIC driver." Mentions both adapters, wired and wireless

 

It is the wifi adapter.

 

Latest dump file from 1 April. Malwarebytes scan ran last night as I have it set for weekly now. Only got the mini crash after as I was monitoring and manually tried to put the computer to sleep. This morning after the computer ran System Maintenance I got the full fledged crash as the computer tried to sleep. Same pattern, Malwarebytes scan and System Maintenance and then crash.

Kind of confused as to how the WiFi adapter is playing a role/is the cause.

 

I recommend to try it and also suggested to update your Realtek wifi driver.

The definition of the 0x9F = A driver is in an inconsistent or invalid power state. Typically occurs during events that involve power state transitions, such as shutting down, or moving into or out of standby or hibernate mode.

 

What is your preferred method for doing driver updates? I previously downloaded the new driver and installed over the top. The properties then do show the new driver version listed so I assume it does get installed. I have seen some recommend uninstalling the current driver first and then installing the new. Not sure if there will be a difference in the outcome doing it this way.

 

I normally install over top and rarely remove before installing a new version.

My prefered method is to install over top and reboot immediately afterwards, but it might be better to first remove and install after a reboot.

 

Still having issues and never fully fleshed out what you would like to see for PCI Express. Options are "off", "moderate power savings", "maximum power savings". Right now it is set for "maximum power savings" for both on battery and plugged in. This laptop is primarily used plugged in.

 

Uhm well it's a section within the advanced options of Power Options and depending on what option you have selected your Network card might respond differently, that is all.
