📎 AI Summary:
The WindowsForum thread discusses a new ASUS laptop experiencing BSOD errors related to driver_power_State_failure. The original poster shares a minidump file, and others analyze the suspected driver, which appears to be a generic pci.sys file, not a specific malfunctioning driver. The overall advice suggests checking power settings, particularly enabling 'Hybrid sleep,' as a potential fix, with the diagnosis indicating no critical driver issues at present.

Solution
Hi,The BSOD usually occur during boot ups on battery, or after wake up from sleep mode if it helps.
try going into advanced power settings and make sure 'Hybrid sleep' is enabled. I checked over the dump file and driver wise your in pretty good shapeish. There are one or two old drivers but I doubt they are involved with the issue. Hopefully the above solution should stop the issue.

I did a quick analysis which points to a driver file called 0x9F_VRFK_3_IMAGE_pci.sys
However I cannot find any information on this driver, can you right click, properties it and report back what the heck it is?

I'm sorry, I didn't quite understand what I should do to help you out. Should I search the device manager for driver names?I did a quick analysis which points to a driver file called 0x9F_VRFK_3_IMAGE_pci.sys

The closest matching name I could find is the "pci.sys" file. It states on the details tab that it is a "NT Plug and Play PCI Enumerator".Browse your Windows\System32\Drivers\ folder, find the file, right click and Properties it.
I'm really interested in the "Details" tab.

Yeah I thought the entry was odd, doesn't seem to be pointing at a real driver per-say, could be the dump analysis doesn't have enough information. pci.sys is a generic driver that comes with windows.
Do you have any other dump files?

I do but I think not all are minidumps. Should I zip them all or just the minidump ones.
