    Power driver state failure

    Hello, thanks to contact the Microsoft Community. My name is Israel Torres, I am an Independent Advisor.

    Driver Power State Failure errors are usually caused by a computer or device driver going into sleep mode while you’re still using the device. Windows would send a wake signal to the device once it is needed and if the device doesn’t respond in time or at all,
    Windows flags a Driver Power State Failure error. The error can be caused either by the driver itself or power settings.

    Fix Windows 10 Driver Power State Failure error

    Two popular causes of this error were graphics drivers and Wi-Fi card drivers. It makes sense to update both while you’re here.

    1. Navigate to Control Panel, Hardware and Sound and Device Manager.

    2. Select your Network adapter and/or Display adapter.

    3. Right click, select ‘Update Driver Software and Search automatically…’.

    4. Reboot your computer and retest.

    If a new driver doesn’t work, turn off power saving.

    1. Navigate to Control Panel, Hardware and Sound and Power Options.

    2. Select ‘Change power settings’ next to the active power plan.

    3. Select ‘Change advanced power settings’ text link.

    4. Select ‘Change settings that are currently unavailable’.

    5. Find Graphics Settings or PCI Express and Link State Power Management and set to Maximum performance, depending on what computer you have.

    6. Find Wireless Adapter Settings and set to Maximum performance.

    7. Reboot your computer and retest.

    Driver Power State Failure

    Hi Roy,

    Driver Power State Failure happens when your device driver goes into sleep mode while you are still using the device. It may be caused by a bad driver or your current power settings. To work around with this, follow these steps:

    • Secure a copy of the latest version of your graphics card and network adapter driver. Go the manufacturer's website for further assistance.
    • Reinstall your graphics card and network adapter driver completely. Usually, wireless drivers are the first ones to go bad, so assuming you are connected to the internet through Wi-Fi, reinstall your wireless driver.
      Go to Device Manager > Display
      adapters and Network adapters
      > Right-click the driver > Uninstall. If possible, select
      Delete driver software for this device. Restart your computer afterwards.
    • Reinstall updated drivers. Go to Device Manager
      > Right-click Other devices or Unknown devices >
      Update driver > Browse my computer for driver software > Select the folder of the downloaded drivers >
      Next.

    If the issue persists, change your power plan to High performance and observe if the issue replicates. Press
    Windows key + S and type Power Options.

    Let us know how it goes.
