ASUS G733P S3 Sleep

Hardware

I have access to a special thingy that allows me to access THE firmware of the device, allowing me to change settings that are locked away from factory. NOW my problem is that, when I first got this Laptop, it came with modern standby (modern trash) and i was looking for ways to enable the good old fashion S3 Sleep. Then i found the thing that allows me to change those settings from the firmware. And in the firmware, there was a setting called “S3/Modern Standby” under “AMD PBS” i flipped that switch, went back to Windows and did the “powercfg /a” and successfully saw that S3 was seen by the OS. Now prior to that i had disabled that Standby via that Reg Key. But to the problem, S3 “works” it goes to sleep, devices go off and loads into RAM, but when i wake the Laptop up, Keyboard turns on, trackpad works, and theres audio (tested by plugging something in), but the display, does not display, backlight turns on to do something but no pixels actively display. I did test with an external monitor and it woke up just fine, was able to see a picture and log back in, It’s just the internal display not coming back. Any help is appreciated! Thank you, apologies for the large rant.
