Any of the mentioned problems can start disturbing your daily computer use by displaying BSOD errors every couple of hours, forcing you to reboot your system over and over again. Driver Power State Failure is also likely to occur if the newly updated drivers do not match the system’s requirements or are uninstalled from the computer incorrectly. This notification can be triggered by a large variety of problems and DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE is one of them.Īs it can already be seen from its title, this error relates to a driver problem and can be caused by corrupted, defective or malfunctioning drivers. Typically BSOD indicates issues with the operating system and can cause crashes of the computer, so restarting the machine can solve the issue with a crash, but that is not fixing the problem itself. This is an error that shows a Blue Screen of Death for the user, so it easily scares the user into thinking that there is no way to fix the problems. This has been going on for a while now (a few months), so I can't recall exactly when it started and what may have changed when it did.To repair damaged system, you have to purchase the licensed version of Reimage Reimage.ĭriver Power State Failure is a common issue with Windows OS devices that people report online. is there a way to reinstall the networking components of Windows only? Or clean out all the settings in case there is something messing PPTP up? Short of a full OS reinstall, I'm not sure what I can look at. In those cases the OS does a "clean" reboot with no BSOD or hanging on shutdown screen etc. This does not happen if I did not connect to a PPTP VPN in the first place. The error code on reboot is 0x0000009f (DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILUR E).
As you can imagine this is quite annoying if the connection fails due to internet issues or problems at the remote end, since it means I can no longer reconnect the VPN(s) unless I reboot.Įven stranger is that if I have a PPTP connection running (or had one and since disconnected it) and I then reboot, my system hangs on shutdown - it just takes a very long time on the shutdown screen and at some point it blue screens and reboots. However, if I disconnect either connection and try to bring it (or any other PPTP connection) back up, it hangs on "Registering your computer on the network".Īt this point, nothing short of a full restart will allow me to get any PPTP connection back up. When the PC is "freshly" rebooted, I can dial up to two PPTP connections (I know that's the limit), and assuming they successfully connect everything is fine. I'm running Windows 7 Ultimate (64-bit, SP1) and have been experiencing some strange behaviour with PPTP connections.
