DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE
Hi, I have a 2020 Razer Blade Advanced with the Intel Core i7-10875H and RTX 2080 Super Max-Q that BSODs after leaving it at idle enough for the screen to turn off. This laptop is running with Nvidia Optimus turned OFF. I don't think the issue happens when I have Nvidia Optimus enabled, but I would like to keep it disabled due to the performance gains I have with it turned off. I noticed that when it restarts and I open Device Manager under the Display adapter>Nvidia GeForce RTX 2080 Super Max-Q it says Code 43 "Windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems. (Code 43)". It was running under Microsoft Basic Display Adapter (according to Windows Settings) until I restarted the laptop. Please help!!! I have no idea why this is happening to an almost brand new laptop that I paid many $$ for. Thank you all for your help in advance! ❤️

Userlevel 5
This issue is usually caused when your PC goes into an invalid or power inconsistency state and incompatibility between your PC’s power management and one or more installed drivers. For now, let's try to reinstall your graphics driver by following the steps below.
-Press Windows + S on your keyboard to open the Search bar.
-Type in “Device Manager” and hit Enter.
-Go to Display adapters.
-Right-click on the Nvidia and select Uninstall device.
-To completely uninstall the drivers, restart your computer.
-The drivers are automatically installed on your computer after a restart.
Should the issue persists, PM me the serial number of your laptop along with a screenshot of your MSINFO32 and the system logs from your Windows Event Viewer. I can use those to take a closer look at your system.
