Blue Screen of Death Caused by Wacom Driver

So if you get a blue screen of death when using a Wacom Intuos Pro tablet on your desktop, the Wacom driver may be to blame. The error message reads DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE 0x0000009f

In my case the issue was preceeded by the tablet switching off when I plugged the usb cable in.

To fix the issue, unistall the Wacom tablet in Control Panel > Applications and Features, then restart and reinstall. The issue should go away.
