Hi Mary,

Since your HP Assistant is not able to open the files, the first thing you should try is checking for HP updates. You can do it by simply following the below steps:
  1. Click My devices on the top of the HP Support Assistant window, then click Updates in the My PC box.
    Updates selectedThe Updates window opens.
  2. If HP Support Assistant detects updates, the updates display in the Updates available window.

     Updates window
  3. To check for recent updates, click Check for updates and messages. If HP Support Assistant finds updates, they display in the Updates available window.

    Updates available window
    • To delete an update, click next to the update.
    • To install the update now, click the Install now icon () next to the update.

Then try fixing the drivers issue by using the Windows troubleshooter.
You can do it by following the below steps:

To open the Troubleshooting tool:
  1. Move the mouse pointer to the lower left corner of the screen, right-click, and select Control Panel from the menu.

  2. Double-click Sound, video and game controllers.
  3. Right-click the name of the audio device and select Properties.

  6. Click Yes to roll back to the previous driver.
I hope this helps.

I kept getting the blue screen with Driver Power State Failure error message and then my computer would restart. I found your product and it did not happen any more. I just purchased an anti-virus (kaspersky) and now it is doing it again. It is so frustrating. My computer is only 6 months old. It is a Asus desktop.
