    And yes, may I introduce a new question which has not be asked hitherto. I'm using an ASUS ROGUE with Windows 10. I want the keyboard not to be able to wake up the big laptop.
    I have unchecked in the Device Manager, Keyboard, PowerManagement the option to allow this laptop to wake up the computer. This does not help. I see nothing in the BIOS to give me any options to halt this activity either. Surely there must be a way to disable this but it is beyond me. Can someone please help me out with this.

    try CMD and run as ADMIN

    type: powercfg -devicedisablewake "Device Name"
    You can find the device name in device manager
