DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE for Acer Aspire V5-571PG after upgrading to Windows 10

DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE for Acer Aspire V5-571PG after upgrading to Windows 10

My Acer Aspire V5-571PG crashed twice in two days since I have upgraded to Windows 10.

These are the minidump

I have already upgraded to the latest Nvidia 355.60 driver yesterday but it crash again today.

I have been using my laptop for both yesterday and today. I experienced two unexplained crashes while I am actively using my computer, so the cause is probably not some low power events. This laptop never crashes when I was using Windows 8 or Windows 8.1, I
am pretty sure this crash is related to Windows 10.

Can someone tell me the cause of my crash?

I have tried looking at the crash dump using WhoCrashed and AppCrashView but I can't figure out exactly which driver might be causing the problem.

I have checked Acer web site and there is no updated or Windows 10 driver listed for this laptop.

I see some people reported DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE problem due to their WIFI or Bluetooth driver but both are disabled on my system, so they can't be causing the crash.

I am using ethernet connection for internet and I see my Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller is signed by Microsoft Windows, Driver version 9.1.401.2015, Date 1/04/2015. I don't think my problem is related to network driver because it would probably crash more
often than I have experienced.

I did not upgrade my Intel(R) HD Graphics 4000 graphics driver but its driver version match the latest version on Intel's site, i.e. Version 10.18.10.4252.

Below is information WhoCrashed provides

On Tue 18/08/2015 12:36:00 PM GMT your computer crashed

crash dump file: C:\WINDOWS\Minidump\081815-57921-01.dmp

This was probably caused by the following module: ntoskrnl.exe (nt+0x14DD00)

Bugcheck code: 0x9F (0x3, 0xFFFFE000DD9A7620, 0xFFFFF800C1ADD990, 0xFFFFE000EDC7D9B0)

Error: DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE

file path: C:\WINDOWS\system32\ntoskrnl.exe

product: Microsoft? Windows? Operating System

company: Microsoft Corporation

description: NT Kernel & System

Bug check description: This bug check indicates that the driver is in an inconsistent or invalid power state.

This appears to be a typical software driver bug and is not likely to be caused by a hardware problem.

The crash took place in the Windows kernel. Possibly this problem is caused by another driver that cannot be identified at this time.
