Unless your harddrive is suffering repeated data corruption, I can't
imagine that reinstalling the same drivers over and over is *actually*
doing anything about the problem.

And I can't imagine why a power failure would be the cause of that.  The
files read for supporting the hardware were read at boot time, and
thereafter held in memory.  A crash, later on, should not have any
effect on the hard drive, other than to any files being written at the
time, or to files that have not yet been written.
