Read the instructions on how To Turn Driver Verifier OFF when you have finished with it.Read the instructions on how to check the Driver Verifier Status.Do not omit the first step, to create a System Restore point before enabling Driver Verifier.Run Driver Verifier following the instructions DRIVER VERIFIER - Windows 7 & Vista. Driver Verifier needs to run 24 hours minimum or until it BSODs your system, whichever is less.If this cures the BSOD's, then reinstall the USB devices one-by-one - waiting to see if they cause BSOD's.Īn alternative might be to run Driver Verifier: Driver Verifier will help find a problematic 3rd party driver if one exists. I would suggest removing all USB devices and uninstalling all software related to them. (or perhaps a bad USB cable, or a broken USB port) System File Protection takes care of this driver, so I suspect either: I added my TV tuner and scanner, but it was owrking fine immediately afterward.Īll 4 minidumps had the same bugcheck - 0x9f (0x3,) = driver in an inconsistent power state and is blocking an IRP for too long a time (IRP = I/O Request Packet) - and all point at usbhub.sys - a Windows component. Product Name : Microsoft® Windows® Operating Systemįile Version. Just a few thoughts while you wait for experienced help.īug Check String : DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE Have you checked the windows update install list to see if any failed? Have you uninstalled anything you didn't use from the add/remove features list? As a quick test I nuked the drive and tried it with just Windows and it was fine. Further reading showed that boot loaders, good and bad, had issues with this security update. I later found that MS update KB971033 would fail to install no matter how I tried to apply it, causing BSOD or never finishing and needing a reboot. After checking things I found that the manufacturer did have issues with this model of drive but only regarding speed. Under Windows I was getting BSOD often and under any load. Under Linux, which was installed last, it seems fine. Does this mean for a short time it was working fine or have you added hardware/software?Īs an example I recently installed a Kingston SSD and setup dual boot on it for Win 7 and Linux.
Do you have any more details? I ask because you say it's a relatively fresh install.
