    Which Compal EC driver version are you using?You bought ROG G14?
    I have configured multiple apps/shortcuts on AW Macro (now not baklit since cable is broken.) I will be moving to Business class laptops like Thinkpad T series the reason I didn't opt for Thinkpad T or P series is most security features written on paper at AMD website is absent on Thinkpad P series eventhough T series share same AMD Pro Ryzen CPUs.

    Looks like Sleep of death returned after running sfc /scannow. Had to disable RST link power saver and Logon Task in Task scheduler which can be found under Microsoft > Windows > Management > Logon Task had to be disabled.
    I'm losing my mind over half a decade old PC which has consistent driver updates available and none of them work w/o causing a issue. Also ran Intel BITS ISO and there was lot of MSR test failure than old lenovo laptop.
