To get the SSDT-EC on desktops, run the following:

  • 7. Dump DSDT then run 2. FakeEC

To get the SSDT-EC on laptops, run the following:

  • 7. Dump DSDT then run 3. FakeEC Laptop

The main things to note with this method:

  • Doesn't provide you the USBX property to fix power
    • This can easily be fixed by using this prebuilt file in addition to SSDT-EC: SSDT-USBX.aml
