    Anyone here seeing these? They are related to the Geforce 860M drivers. Over on the ASUS ROG forum, ASUS posted requesting full memory dumps for NVIDIA to investigate.

    G750JM Daily BSODS, DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE

    Just a heads up.

    Could be something overheating when the notebook is loaded and the lid closed.

    Nah that's not how it happens. It's an infrequent BSOD that occurs after you've gamed for awhile. For example, I was playing a game for a few hours the other day and quit to load up a different game. When I tried to load up the other game, the game wouldn't load. I looked in task manager and the process was locked up. I tried to kill it but it wouldn't die. So I tried to log off of Windows and it BSODed with the driver power state error.

    It doesn't occur if you run the old ASUS V9.18.13.3260 GeForce driver. NV 332.60 that is.

    I am having exactly the same problem with my G750JM, in exactly the same scenarios, I removed that Asus Power4gear bloatware and it seems to have cut those bsod down, but I still get one from time to time, I think it has something to do with the Asus bloatware and the most recent Nvidia drivers, if we can find and remove all the software causing the issue we should be able to fix the problem .
