So recently, my computer has started crashing on occasion when I put it into Sleep Mode. It doesn't happen frequently, and only after being put to Sleep, but still, mildly annoying.

It's done it twice now, and both times, it was the same thing, relevant portions bolded; 022316-15568-01.dmp 2/23/2016 2:36:59 AM DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE 0x0000009f 00000000`00000003 fffffa80`0f53a3a0 fffff800`0498f3d8 fffffa80`1444f610 ntoskrnl.exe ntoskrnl.exe+73c40 NT Kernel & System Microsoft® Windows® Operating System Microsoft Corporation 6.1.7601.19045 (win7sp1_gdr.151019-1254) x64 ntoskrnl.exe+73c40 C:\Windows\Minidump\022316-15568-01.dmp 4 15 7601 353,611 2/23/2016 2:57:01 AM

I've done some Googling, but the closest I can come to finding a similar error, the problem was in the memory; I've already tested the memory by manually removing the RAM chips one at a time, and by letting MemTest run a full ten passes, and using the built in Windows memory checker; squeaky clean on all accounts, I'm pretty sure it's not the memory. Any thoughts?

The only recent changes I can think might be relevant is that, until recently, my Norton Antivirus was running a utility every 30 minutes, that would wake my computer to run; I disabled it's ability to wake my computer, but the crashes didn't start happening until a while after that.

(Any comments regarding my choice of antivirus can be politely kept to one's self, unless they're directly relevant to my present issue.)

As far as I can gather from the translation, that particular form of the error only seems to be in regards to if I have an external hard drive connected, which I don't? Honestly, I'm just not solidly confident in a translation.



The only new program I've installed was for a Webcam, and that was over a week before the crashes started occurring.
