Edit: Fixed the issue The issue was of incompatible hdd caddy. Changed the caddy for a new one. The blue screen error and the System process using too much cpu both got fixed.

Whenever I try to update or install Windows 10 I get this blue screen sometime once sometime multiple times. The error code I get on blue screen is:

Driver Power State Failure

Then after sometimes the Windows boots up normally.

Now after installing Windows I see System process using too much CPU like 15-30% sometimes. Is it related to that Blue Screen error or some other issue?

Using process explorer I got that ACPI.sys is using CPU.

ACPI.sys is a driver for power management, PnP devices, USB etc. And DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE is an error often linked to corrupted drivers. FIX?: Go into "Device Manager" and look for a driver with a exclamation mark. That driver should be the problem.

To fix the problem try updating the driver.

Hope it helps.
