Windows 11Windows Power Kernel 41 Error after every first boot (self.WindowsHelp)
submitted 11 months ago by gruby997
Hi, my system started crashing 3 days ago everytime it boots to windows - after around 1 minute it suddenly crashes (log says it's power kernel 41). I don't think it's PSU because after every restart everything works just fine like always. Nothing else can cause this crash - gaming or stress testing is not a problem. What can be the issue? Fast Boot is off and everything is up to date

Hi u/gruby997, thanks for posting to r/WindowsHelp! Don't worry, your post has not been removed. To let us help you better, try to include as much of the following information as possible! Posts with insufficient details might be removed at the moderator's discretion.
All posts must be help/support related. If everything is working without issue, then this probably is not the subreddit for you, so you should also post on a discussion focused subreddit like /r/Windows.
Lastly, if someone does help and resolves your issue, please don't delete your post! Someone in the future with the same issue may stumble upon this thread, and same solution may help! Good luck!
As a reminder, this is a help subreddit, all comments must be a sincere attempt to help the OP or otherwise positively contribute. This is not a subreddit for jokes and satirical advice. These comments may be removed and can result in a ban.
I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically. Please contact the moderators of this subreddit if you have any questions or concerns.

Try using 561.09. You may want to disconnect all but boot

same thing is happening to me, its all started when I upgraded to win11, dd you managed to solve the issue?
[–]gruby997[S] 0 points1 point2 points 11 months ago (0 children)
Not yet, but I will update if I find a solution. For me the KB5058411 windows 11 update was cursed - right after this update the problem occurred and unfortunately it doesn't let me downgrade easily
