Can't use Windbg to investigate BSOD 0x0000009f

Hi guys,

I've been having those BSODs with the driver power state failure message.

I'm running Windows 7 RC x86 build 7100.
Asus M3N78-VM
AMD Athlon X2 5000+
2 gigs of Kingston 6400 RAM
Asus 8800gts
2x500gb (Seagate and WD)

I was running Windows XP Pro till the Windows 7 RC became available. I had no problems whatsoever for months with XP.

My problem is that i can't get the correct symbols to analyze the minidumps to see where it points at. And it would be my first time doing so since i didn't know much about it and i wanna keep Windows 7 running. Here's the symbol file path I entered in Windbg:

SRV*c:\symbols*http://msdl.microsoft.com/download/symbols

And here's what i get when i load a minidump file:

I got as many drivers updated as i could, but i'm aware that since it's an RC, there could be no easy fix to this.

Any help with this would be appreciated. I'm including a zip of 2 of those minidumps if somebody can check em for me.

Thanks a lot

 

Hello,

Thank you for your answer.

First things first, Asus do not provide drivers for my mobo for windows 7 yet. But i updated my Nvidia components with the 15.37 nforce drivers and the 185.85 graphics driver.

Now the real point of my post was to find a way (or somebody that could do it for me) to analyze a minidump of my crashes.

I do know that it's a test version, but i know i could solve this simple driver problem and find one that suits windows 7 if i could debug that minidump and identify the culprit.

Thanks
