    Event Kernel Power 41 when waking PC from sleep since Day 1 of PC Build


    I have been having an issue on my new PC build where whenever I put the new PC to sleep, instead of waking up and resuming where I had left off, the entire PC would restart. In my event viewer log it would show Kernel Power 41 Error. Here are the details for the event 41:Log Name: SystemSource: Microsoft-Windows-Kernel-PowerDate: 6/20/2025 8:29:58 PMEvent ID: 41Task Category: 63Level: CriticalKeywords: 70368744177664,2User: &nb

    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.

    Regards,

    restart and kernel-power event

    Hi,



    The kernel power event ID 41 error occurs when the computer is shut down, or it restarts unexpectedly. When a computer that is running Windows starts, a check is performed to determine whether the computer was shut down cleanly. If the computer was not shut
    down cleanly, a Kernel Power Event 41 message is generated.



    Try this, see if it works for you:

    • Go to "Settings"
    • Select "System"
    • Select "Power and Sleep"
    • Select "Additional Power Settings"
    • Select "Choose what the power buttons do"
    • Select "Change settings currently available"
    • Ensure that "Turn on fast start up" is deselected (unticked)
    • Click on "Save Changes"


    Restart your computer after performing the steps.



    Let us know if the above steps resolved the issue.

    Event Kernel Power 41 when waking PC from sleep since Day 1 of PC Build

    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
