I would like to provide solution to this issue as was very frustrated with this blue screen error. Whoever facing this issue, you just need to check first display adapter or wireless adapter. you need to be sure that driver is updated. 9 out of 10 times display drier creates this problem. especially in your case display driver could be cause of the problem.

if you need more detail you can check his link to fix driver power state failure BSOD error as i was able to resolve this frustrating issue.
