System error detected: Driver power state malfunction. Assistance required.
Heyo, I upgraded my PC to a Ryzen 5 7600 and B650 Platform. For the third consecutive day, I encountered BSOD Driver Power State Failure. >_> I checked bluescreenviewer to identify the responsible driver and found that "ntoskrnl.exe" is involved. The specs are: Ryzen 5 7600, ASRock B650 Pro RS, NVIDIA KFA2 GeForce RTX 3060, 12Gb Samsung 250Gb SSD, 970 Evo Plus, Corsair Vengeance DDR5 5600MHz. I've already run scf /scannow, checked CHKDSK, used Windows Memory Diagnostic, verified for updates and drivers. I didn't overclock the CPU, but XMP is enabled since my RAM doesn't function properly when it's not active. I'm not sure if this is connected to the RAM issue.
I see you're experiencing difficulties. However, the information provided isn't sufficient to assist effectively. ntoskrnl.exe is a Windows program that often stops when something goes wrong with your PC's parts. The Driver Power State Failure can stem from various reasons. Without reviewing the minidump (which you can share if needed), one frequent issue is loose cables on the motherboard or GPU. Given your recent PC upgrade, I suggest re-seating all connections. If you prefer not to do that, I can help analyze the minidump once you provide it.
I reorganized all my cables now ^^ and uploaded the dump file as well 051823-10703-01.dmp
I performed a clean, fresh setup on my new PC. Cleaning the SSD several times due to habit, yet I successfully installed Windows 11 without issues.
