Driver Power State Failure BSOD

Hi all, I've been receiving a Driver Power State Failure BSOD after shutting down/restarting my machine since yesterday. I just installed the Windows 7 RC1 but noticed people have helped out with this BSOD error on these forums before. My shutdown is taking around 20 minutes before crashing with the BSOD. How do I find out what is causing the error and fix it? Should I post my minidump? Thanks.

Post the dump, it may point to a cause however the symbols for Seven aren't available yet, so it may also be inconclusive.

Re: Driver Power State Failure BSOD

Greetings,
I have an HP Pavilion dv4 running Vista Home Premium 32 and encounter BSODs at random times, the most recent time with a "Driver Power State Failure". HP support has been unable to solve this. I've unplugged all ancillary peripherals (keyboards, monitors, etc.) to try and isolate the issues. The laptop can go for several days even weeks with no errors, then poof. The BSOD seems to always have an 0x0..07F code associated with it. This is for business use, so I'm in dire straits... Thanks for any help out there!

I'm running Vista Home Premium 32 - not Seven. So I'm new to this... How do I post the Dump? Thanks for your help!
