DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE (0x9F) on ASUS X870E-E & Ryzen 9 9950X3D

Hello,

I am experiencing frequent BSODs with the stop code
DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE (0x9F).

Hardware:

• ASUS ROG Strix X870E-E Gaming WiFi
  • AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D
  • Windows 11
  • Latest AMD chipset drivers installed from the ASUS website
  • BIOS 2306 (the issue also occurred before updating to this BIOS)
  Symptoms:
  • Random BSODs during very light workloads (Outlook, Chrome, PDFCreator).
  • Today I experienced four BSODs within 20 minutes.
  • Sometimes the PC can run for about an hour before crashing.
  • The computer also wakes from sleep by itself every 10 to 15 minutes.
  Troubleshooting already performed:
  • BIOS updated.
  • AMD chipset drivers completely removed and reinstalled.
  • OCCT CPU and memory stress tests completed without errors.
  • No WHEA errors reported.
  • Normal CPU and motherboard temperatures.

WinDbg analysis:
Bugcheck: DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE (0x9F)
IMAGE_NAME: pci.sys
Failure Bucket:
0x9F_3_ACPI_IMAGE_pci.sys
Power IRP blocked in ACPI.
Device identified:
PCI\VEN_1022&DEV_14DB

I also found another ASUS ROG Strix X870E-E Gaming WiFi user reporting the same
DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE (0x9F). In that case, WinDbg identified
Usb4HostRouter.sys instead of pci.sys.

Could this indicate an AMD chipset, ACPI, USB4 controller or motherboard PCIe
power management issue?

I can provide the minidump files, the complete WinDbg analysis and the Windows
Event Viewer logs if needed.

Thank you.
