    Hey, I recently put together a new system. I've installed the relevant drivers for my CPU and GPU, but have been occasionally getting Driver Power State Failure bluescreens. It's not consistent what triggers this, so I'm struggling slightly to figure it out. I've had a look at the most recent minidump, which seems to point to pci.sys, which I'm assuming is related to the NVMe slot, rather than the PCIe slot my GPU is in?I've shared the two minidumps I've had so far related to this issue below. If somebody could help me analyse and point me in the right direction to resolve this, that'd be much

    :)

  3. Driver Power State Failure

    Hello Microsoft community, I have been facing a problem with Windows where it would crash randomly with the error
    "Driver Power State Failure"

    I recently bought this new Asus laptop about 3 weeks ago and it comes with Windows 10. The details of my laptop/system information is stated in this notepad file.

    System Information

    Steps that I have taken to fix this error based on what I've read and searched:-

    • Updating drivers from the official Asus product support page for my laptop
    • Reset Windows 2 times over the course of 2 weeks
    • Did a factory reset using the Windows 10 tool just 3 days ago
    • Downloaded every drivers listed under official Asus product support page for my laptop and running every single one of them to ensure everything was installed. The results said I am already using newer versions of drivers
    The latest error that occurred is recently before I'm writing this question. Here is the minidump file for the latest crash regarding the error.

    There was also another error regarding a "DPC Watchdog Violation"
    although after resetting windows 2 times and did a factory reset recently, the only error that consistently keeps occurring is Driver Power State Failure. I really need help to solve this issue as it is hindering a lot of my work. Thank you for your time and
    support.

    DRIVER POWER STATE FAILURE

    I have tried to follow instructions to solve DRIVER POWER STATE FAILURE and to this point I find a lot of these 'experts' suggest doing things which are beyond the usual user level. This failure came on suddenly and even though I can log on the failure occurs each time. If possible PLEASE provide an easy to follow help. Someone suggested there may be a problem with the power supply. Is this possible?

    Fortunately I have other computers to use.
