So the problem @pastrychef is that I can't stop tinkering, whilst not fully understanding what I am doingWhat does not work with serial port enabled?
I see nothing wrong with pmset.
I've been having issues with Unlock With Apple Watch on this setup (it worked well on my Z87-HD3) so I was trying to find a solution with my limited knowledge and penchant for breaking stuff. Knowing that many people have an issue with wake from sleep when serial port is enabled, I wondered if this could be connected.
I reverted to BIOS F7 within which you can disable the Serial Port. Hey presto, unlock with Apple Watch works brilliantly. So I was trying to find a way to have the most up to date BIOS while disabling the Serial Port. Someone over at another forum (I like to give you a rest once in a while) helped me with a DSDT to disable SP which it did, but I think it broke sleep also and didn't fix the Apple Watch issue.
So to end a long story, I am going to stick with F7 where I can disable Serial Port. It's a horrible interface but it has the feature I want. You mentioned you had issues with the older BIOS's - anything I need to watch out for?
