On several occasions not long after boot up on vista I get the blue error message screen which states
DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE

which then requires a reboot and then is usually working fine.
Anyone have any idea what might be causing this and how to fix this problem?

Did it mention any file name?

Sir, please refer to this document from Microsoft (even though it's meant for Windows XP but it will still give you some idea).
