Hi, since a week my laptop cant wake from sleep mode. I got a BSOD each time. I looked a bit into solutions for other people but didnt find anything that solved my probleme.
The sfc /scannow didnt reveale any probleme, neithere did malwarbites anti-malware.
I also completely re installed windows but the issue remains. Also my computer now takes ages to start, compared to before.

I really hope someone can help me out, and if you do thanks in advance !!
Feel free to ask for information, I dont really now what is relevant to give you.


Here are a few minidump files I opened with who crashed :

A third party driver was identified as the probable root cause of this system error. It is suggested you look for an update for the following driver: iastora.sys (Intel Rapid Storage Technology driver - x64, Intel Corporation).

All your dumpfiles indicates problems with this driver iaStorA iaStorA.sys Mon Oct 28 22:15:26 2013 (526ED3EE).
This is the driver for Intel RST (Rapid Storage Technology) driver.
Although your driver is from oct 2013, it may probably be corrupted.

Please uninstall it and download the SetupRST.exe file from this page: https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Det...&DwnldID=23496 from 12-12-2013.

Please also update these older drivers to windows 8.1 compatibility. Links are included to assist in looking up the source of the drivers. If unable to find an update, please remove (un-install) the program responsible for that driver. DO NOT manually delete/rename the driver as it may make the system unbootable! :

I uninstalled intel rapid storage, and installed the new one with the SetupRST.exe as advised. Unfortunately my computer still doesnt wake up from sleep mode.
I dont think I changed the iaStorA.sys, iaStorV and iaStorAV files by installing intel RST with this method, maybe this is the probleme.

I also uninstalled a few asus soft with old drivers, but i doubt it really matters.

Here is a diagnostique I just runned, and I hope you make sens of it.

The new dumpfiles blames again the iastorA.sys. DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE (9f) bug check even with the latest updated drivers from Intel.

I checked the Asussite for your model http://www.asus.com/nl/supportonly/K56CB/#support_Download but they don't have windows 8.1 drivers for the Intel Rapid Storage driver.

There seams to be similiar issues like your problem on the net.

Do you have a SSD-Harddisk in your system or are you using RAID ?

Thanks a lot for the quick reply.
After following the first step indicated on one of the thread mantioned, my computer finnaly works properly.
For the record if someone has the same problem, here is how i solved it :


"Head to Device Manager > IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers, change the drivers for the Intel (also works for AMD/Nvidia - enables TRIM for SSDs and allows SSD software to access the drive for firmware updates, etc.) to the standard AHCI 1.0 Serial ATA Controller. Do this by selecting "Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer" and then choose the "Standard AHCI 1.0 Serial ATA Controller" (it's the inbuilt Windows driver for AHCI SATA). Apply/OK your way back out of Device Manager."

thanks again for your help, you save me weeks of waiting from the after sale department !
