Computer crash (reboot) due to a DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE due to SRTSP.sys

Recently I upgraded Windows 7 Home Premium to Windiows 8 PRo, 32-bit.

 

Yesterday, I started up my computer after putting it to sleep mode and discovered that the machine had recovered from a complete crash.

 

The Windows System Logs show:

  • Bugcheck error 1001 with a reference to a large MEMORY.dmp file
  • Kernel-Power critical 41 "The system has rebooted without cleanly shutting down first"
  • EventLog 6008 "The previous system shutdown at 12:57:38 on ‎31/‎10/‎2012 was unexpected"

This issue was reported on the Microsoft Community board and this is their analysis:

 

BugCheck 9F, {4, 12c, 8654bd40, 8109ab14}

Unable to load image \SystemRoot\System32\Drivers\NIS\1402000.013\SRTSP.SYS, Win32 error 0n2 *** WARNING: Unable to verify timestamp for SRTSP.SYS *** ERROR: Module load completed but symbols could not be loaded for SRTSP.SYS Can't retrieve thread context, Win32 error 0n30

 

The SRTSP.SYS is a Norton driver that caused a conflict and a system crash. Can this be prevented or is this a bug?
