Windows 10: BSOD Randomly with no single trigger (Kernel Power ID 41)

Hey All,

I have a 2017 Lenovo P51s that has worked well for the last 2 years for work (Solidworks, Excel, Eagle PCB, VS Code, VS Studio) and haven't had too many issues with it, however recently for the past week or so I've been getting a BSOD maybe 3-6 times a day. Initially it was when I would plug in power supply/mouse/HDMI monitor within about 5 seconds but now it happens randomly even if I've set it down to do something else I'll notice it BSOD. The Event Viewer has a lot of warnings regarding Kernel Processor Power, and critical errors below:






I've attached the .zip file using the log. (Note: I've enabled minidumps but the V2 Logger informs me there is no dump?)

EDIT: I've followed some additional advice of other forum posts regarding setting up Small Mini Dump (256kb) , monitoring fan speed and temp, and changing virtual memory settings from "Automatically manage paging file sizes for all drives".

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.

Randomly BSOD (kernel-power ID 41)


Looking through the Event logs, I just found this:





Disable Fast Startup, see if that helps resolve this: How to Turn On or Off Fast Startup in Windows 10

 

New PC randomly restarting, Event 41 Kernel Power

event 41 kernel power is pretty self explanatory its power related 41 only gets triggered due to a sudden loss of power without tripping a stop code or if the system hard resets without a BSOD
