Hey @scope666! I changed the ACPI SSDTs to match the OpenCore Guide for Comet Lake and removed the Device Property that disabled your Nvidia card, that's it. I left your USB Map enabled figuring it would be a good place to start.

I'll have to test this, if ok on my rig also, I'll fold in your ACPI changes permanently. I tried this once before a year or two ago and had some staying asleep issues. Thanks!

I think you'll have a return of the same sleep problems if that's what you decide, I remember having a similar conversation about this about 1000 posts ago . I had to change it to work for me but your uploads have worked for a lot of users, I'd leave yours as is. Up to you of course.

The USB port kext was activated.
I disabled the Intel network controller in the BIOS, I've been clicking around for half an hour without crashing the system. I suppose that there will be modifications to make to have operational ethernet.

I tested, putting it to sleep works, but to get out of it, you have to use the power button, the mouse or the keyboard do nothing.

Interesting, that's how it behaves with MY EFI, but I think you're on Leesureone's correct?

A lot of MSI, and some Gigabyte motherboards, with bios settings set as "optimized" behave exactly the same. There is usually a bios setting under power management that lets you enable wake from USB device and that changes needing to use the power button to wake it up. The mouse or keyboard will get it back up and running.

I had this same exact board, it's kind of been a minute, but I don't recall ever needing to use the power button to wake it up. I also don't recall having a bios setting on the Asus ROG Strix Z490-E to enable Wake from USB, might be worth looking if it bothers you. Otherwise I don't think that behavior can be changed with OpenCore but if someone knows differently please feel free to chime in.

So same thing? You wake the system using the power button?

Yes ... although most of the time I just shutdown and reboot, because after sleep my fans tend to get "stuck" and not spin faster / slower based on temps. Happens in Windows too, I think it's a bug with my Corsair Commander or something...

Yes, i'm on Leesureone's EFI

I reactivated Vtd and the Intel network controller. After reboot, I have ethernet connection and internet access. It's been about half an hour and the system still seems stable, no crashes.
