Fixing Embedded Controllers: Prebuilt

By far the easiest way to fix your Embedded Controller is just downloading one of the files below:

Desktop:

• SSDT-EC-USBX-DESKTOP (opens new window)
  • For Skylake desktops and newer and AMD CPU based systems
• SSDT-EC-DESKTOP (opens new window)
  • For Broadwell desktops and older

Laptops:

• SSDT-EC-USBX-LAPTOP.aml (opens new window)
  • For Skylake laptops and newer
• SSDT-EC-LAPTOP.aml (opens new window)
  • For Broadwell laptops and older
