You may have encountered a blue screen of death with a specific error called “DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE”. This usually happens when the computer is hibernated and then reactivated (woken up). There may be other reasons for this problem. Generally speaking, this error indicates that there is a problem with the drivers: the installed drivers are incompatible or work incorrectly. A device driver is software that informs the operating system and other software of its interaction with certain hardware. It is more like a translator between software and hardware, as they are often created by different manufacturers, companies, or individuals. The driver ensures seamless communication between hardware and software. In most cases, drones cannot send and receive data correctly. If the correct driver is not installed, the device may not function correctly (if at all) and display various blue screen errors, including DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE.
Fortunately, BSOD errors can be fixed. This guide describes various methods for updating or reinstalling drivers or adjusting power settings. Read the guide below and follow the steps to fix the DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE error in a few simple steps.

Customize power management options
To adjust the power management settings, open the Device Manager and expand the Network Cards section. Right-click the network card and choose Properties from the context menu (or double-click it).
In the Network Card Properties window, browse for and click the Power Management tab. Make sure the option “Let my computer turn off this device to save power” is unchecked.
