BSOD on my new ROG551JW.

So I've just bought my new ROG551JW and at first boot up it was so pleasant and fast until I suddenly got my first BSOD. Seems like it happens at random times and ONLY when my AC power isn't plugged. I tried using the Asus given Nvidia drivers but with no avail I tried updating every drivers and still having the BSOD. Can someone please help

Rintaru20, turn off reboot after BSOD, and write down the BSOD code, google it, there might already be solutions for that BSOD.

Please come back and let us know how it works out.

The BSOD is the dreaded DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILIRE which I searched extensively on but the only solution there was is downloading the stable version of my Nvidia drivers that are provided by asus on the site and those still cause the BSOD but I'll do the suggested and see how it turns out
