Intermittent DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE BSOD when going to sleep  

Consider making a new restore point / backup image:


Create System Restore Point in Windows 10


Macrium Software | Your Image is Everything
Backup and Restore with Macrium Reflect

Above recommendations have been completed.

Things are looking good, no BSOD's since 2/3/2020 8:05:17 PM. I would to return these troubleshooting settings back to default

Please provide commands to return the following parms back to default
7) wmic recoveros set autoreboot = false
8) wmic recoveros set DebugInfoType = 7
9) wmic recoveros get autoreboot
10) wmic recoveros get DebugInfoType
11) powercfg -h off
12) bcdedit /enum {badmemory}

Thanks

The parameters 7 -12 are optimal settings (hibernation can be modified if there are no performance problems)

7) unchecked the box for automatic restart
This setting allows the end user to view the BSOD window with bugcheck and : )
Sometimes a misbehaving driver may be displayed in the form *.sys

If the box is rechecked the computer will restart immediately after a BSOD and the end user may miss that a BSOD had occurred. IF you are running a server then this box can be checked. Or if you regularly use the computer with remote access then the box can be checked.

8) Automatic is ideal for the size of the dump file

9) checks the result for step 7)
10) checks the resut for step 8)

11) When hibernation is turned off it also turns off windows fast startup
This setting can be modified by turning on hibernation and windows fast startup or turning on hibernation and turning off windows fast startup.

To turn on hibernation: powercfg -h on
For Windows fast startup:
Turn On or Off Fast Startup in Windows 10
For hibernation:
Enable or Disable Hibernate in Windows 10

12) this command made no changes and was to check for bad memory

13) The reliability monitor and event viewer can be used to view events related to problems with hibernation or windows

I just checked Windows update. It wants to install Rivet Networks LLC - Extension - 2.1.3163.0

This is the same numbering as "Killer-Control-Center-Application_KG3DM_WIN_2.1.3163.0_A10.EXE" which I had to uninstall to return stability to my Win 10


Rivert Networks is the provider of the Killer driver and software. At this point I don't want to install/update any of their products in fear of the BSOD's returning.

How can I prevent this update and future Rivert updates from happening in Windows Update

Hi Zbook, I have made the changes to prevent Windows Update from updating drivers.

No further BSOD's, issue is resolved

Thanks for your help and quick responses - all was greatly appreciated
