Fixing Power Management

CPU naming is fairly easy to figure out as well, open your decompiled DSDT and search for Processor. This should give you a result like this:

As we can see, the first processor in our list is PR00. This is what we'll be applying the plugin-type=1 property too. Now grab SSDT-PLUG and replace the default CPU0 with our PR00. There's a couple things to note:

• There's 2 mentions of CPU0 to change
• The PR path may need to be changed, in our example we can see that our PR00 has SB in front.

So in our final example, we'd have _SB_.PR00 and \_SB.PR00

There are also some edge cases with Processor, specifically on HEDT series like X79, X99 and X299. This edge case is that the ACPI path is much longer and not so obvious:

If we then search for instances of CP00 we find that it's ACPI path is SB.SCK0.CP00:

So for this X299 board, we'd change \_PR.CPU0 with \_SB.SCK0.CP00 and External (_PR_.CPU0, ProcessorObj) with External (_SB_.SCK0.CP00, ProcessorObj)

External (_PR_.CPU0, ProcessorObj) <- Rename this

Scope (\_PR.CPU0) <- Rename this
{
    Method (DTGP, 5, NotSerialized)
    {
       ...
    }

For those having issues, you can also check Device Manager -> CPU -> BIOS device Name

Note: X299 may report CP10 or higher for the CPU, when this happens use CP00 instead. This issue is due to weird numeration on Windows' side

Now you're ready to compile the SSDT!
