DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE when playing certain games (analyzed by WhoCrashed)

[Guest JusTDutcH101-91E4DBBF-E59F-4CD1-99EF-A694DD4ACA78]

So my laptop died around a year ago and I had it repaired 3 to 4 times (due to BSOD on start-up). After the 4th time repaired (it was the only shop I was allowed to repair for free since they covered almost all costs, otherwise it would cost me a fortune) I just settled with the game being able to run less games.

Error: DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE

company: Microsoft Corporation

Bug check description: This bug check indicates that the driver is in an inconsistent or invalid power state. A device object has been blocking an IRP for too long a time.

This is likely to be caused by a hardware problem.

The crash took place in the Windows kernel. Possibly this problem is caused by another driver that cannot be identified at this time. ''

 

Anyone with knowledge if there is anything I can do by myself or do I need to get it checked again? It's a laptop and the rapir was about the motherboard.
