After the 2026-09-24 NH3 outage pfi-gx10 stayed off. It has no BMC, and the ASUS firmware defaults to staying off after AC loss. With Prime's approval, bytes 3-4 of the UEFI Setup variable were changed from 0x1d,0x00 to 0x1c,0x01, a community recipe that matches factory power-on units. The readback shows exactly those two bytes changed. The original 85-byte raw variable (attr header included) is committed here and also kept on the box. The README records that an OS shutdown is not a test of this setting. It stays off by design, and two such "tests" were invalid. The only valid test is pulling and restoring AC, which Prime will do on 2026-09-25. It also records the revert procedure.
