Error BSOD - DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE
Error BSOD - DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE
Hello, I built a PC a few months back and have been experiencing blue screens repeatedly. Even after reinstalling the operating system via USB to fix driver issues, the BSOD persists. I’ve shared the minidump file and updated my settings to automatic dump for kernel logging. Previously, a kernel dump indicated the USBHUB3 was the faulty device. Now, I’ve removed all USB devices except the mouse and keyboard, and connected only a Wi-Fi 7 antenna which isn’t USB. Could you advise on what details to provide when generating the kernel dump next time I encounter a BSOD? Thanks.
Welcome to the forums, newcomer!
I've even reinstalled my OS via a USB to fix any driver issues, but the BSOD still occurs.
Have you tried recreating the bootable USB installer for your OS?
Did you disconnect all storage drives except the one you want to install?
Did you install the OS in offline mode?
Manually installed all required drivers through an elevated command—like right-clicking the installer and selecting Run as Administrator?
I also have a Wi-Fi 7 antenna plugged in, but it's not USB. Could you clarify? Are you talking about the WiFi built into the motherboard?
What is your motherboard's BIOS version?
I saved the Windows 11 media creation tool from Microsoft to install Windows 11 onto a USB drive, then used it to boot into the USB and install on my PC.
Only one storage device was present, which was an SSD.
The OS was installed in offline mode using the out-of-box setup instructions.
I utilized the ASUS DriverHub for drivers such as USB and Bluetooth. I downloaded the WIFI driver from the motherboard site, copied it to a USB stick, and installed it on the PC. I also added chipset drivers from AMD and a Nvidia GPU driver from Nvidia’s website.
The wifi antenna included with the motherboard was connected to the motherboard slot.
BIOS Version: 0903 – recently updated.
