Problems with MSI RTX 2070 Super

[TheJohnSimone]

Hello,

I’ve recently built my first computer (Specs listed at the bottom) and have been experiencing some screen stuttering. When I restart my computer I often get a blue screen with a DRIVER_POWER_STATE_ERROR code. So I usually end up reinstalling my graphics drivers. This usually fixes the issue temporarily (for like a day or two). But I don’t want to do this that often, I’ve even performed a clean install of the drivers a couple of times. If anyone knows a fix, it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Usually when I make changes like this I reboot go back and check to make sure that the changes stayed.

If they did them redo the reinstall of you display drivers after uninstalling them.

Thanks for the quick response. I gave that a try and everything seems to running well. That doesn’t necessarily mean it’s fixed though. Most of the time reinstalling the drivers fixes the issue for a day or two. So I’ll keep you posted on whether or not that’s a permanent fix.

Not a problem will keep the thread open for a few days if we do not hear back from you the thread will be closed.

There is another way that could help as well it requires you to edit the registry and is done incorrectly could cause the system to stop responding.

I guess I spoke to soon, I started having some stuttering a couple of minutes ago, so I tried restarting. I ended up getting the same DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE Blue Screen Code. So I can already tell that didn’t help.

Lets get the dump files.

Ok, I have retrieved all the dump files since I built the PC. I believe they all had the same Blue Screen Error Code.

The problem looks to be with the MBs chipset drivers, see attachment below, download the latest version from here if you already have this version installed, uninstall them and reinstall the ones from MSI.

Ok thanks for the response.

I’m working on installing the drivers, but am having some trouble. When uninstalling the loading bar gets stuck at 25%, but said the uninstall was successful.

So I tried Installing the newest drivers and a failure on the AMD PCI Device Driver Install. I tried twice and will send you the log file. I get and error code of 1603 from the driver install failure.

Here are the log files for the failed driver installs

Error 1603 troubleshooting steps here

Something that I did not see on the AMD possible fix list, make sure that you are signed in as Admin and save the driver to the desktop, create a new system restore point, restart in Safe Mode only (No Networking) see if you are able to install the drivers.

[TheJohnSimone]

Thanks, I think it was a corrupt Microsoft C++ file, I ended up uninstalling and reinstalling them. Then I my AMD PCI driver installed just fine.

I’m pretty sure my issues are fixed, I’ll let you know if I see any issues in the next few days.

You are welcome and good luck (y)

It worked for a bit. I shutdown my computer last night, and when I booted it up a little while ago I was experiencing stuttering again. And when I tried to restart. I got the same blue screen again. Here is the new Dump File.
