Not sure if this belongs here, but I need some help.
The symptoms: my machine slowed to a crawl. I was unable to open most programs and Windows Explorer. Firefox worked as did Gmail. Then, when I started up, the machine would pause at the ASUS welcome screen and sometimes go no further. Other times it would go to the Windows sign-in screen and I could sign in.

At that point, all I had was a black screen with only the Wacom Tablet app from which I could access Wacom Support on Firefox and then the rest of the internet.   At other times, I could get through to Windows, but most programs would not work. 
I had a USB rescue drive, but when I loaded it I was given a no operating system error message.  Since I can't run Reflect on this machine, I am unable to make a new rescue medium.  I don have Reflect on another machine.
Not sure if this is relevant, but a couple of times when I tried to sign out of the machine using the power button, I got a warning that a Macrium backup was running.  Nothing should have been running.

I'm not sure what the "Driver Power State Failure" phrase you used as the title of this topic has to do with the description you provided, but setting that aside and looking solely on the content of your post, if your Rescue Media doesn't work and you can't use Reflect on your own PC to rebuild that flash drive, you're really going to need to get to another PC somewhere in order to build new Rescue Media, even if you only install Reflect Free on that other PC.  The only other possibility might be using the boot menu recovery option if you ever enabled that on your PC, which allows you to boot into Rescue using files that exist on your internal drive, but I'm figuring you would have already tried that if you had enabled that option.  The only other option would be actually fixing whatever is wrong with your PC, but given the symptoms you've described, that's unlikely to be feasible for someone to help with via forum posts.

I do have another PC available and it has Reflect on it.  I can use that to make Rescue media, correct?

Yes. In general, you want to make Rescue Media on the PC you'll be using it with in order to ensure that any necessary drivers are baked into the build, but in many cases if you use a newer version of WinPE/WinRE, there will be enough built-in support for the system's hardware to allow Rescue Media to do what it needs to do, so it's worth a shot.
