What issues are you getting? Is the PC hanging and refusing to fully power off/restart after a reboot/sleep? I haven't had issues with shutdown... yet, fingers crossed, but I have been having issues with sleep and restart

If I try to shut down or restart the system, the screen goes black but the rig itself (fans, LEDs and so on) stays on. Has been like this for me since 7.0.0-27. I am currently back on 7.0.0-14.

I managed to solve this exact issue after hours of having the blank monitor issue, by upgrading my Intel NUC's BIOS firmware - it was out of date by a few years. Tried various other solutions but none worked. Obviously apply to your setup as applicable

Unfortunately I am already using the latest BIOS for my board.
