My new laptop has “ModernStandby” which Consumes Considerable Power....

I tried to get S3 mode back by adding "PlatformAoAcOverride /t REG_DWORD" to the reg, then the pc couldn't wake from sleep anymore....Is there a better way to get S3 sleep mode back?

If the BIOS doesn't have support for S3 included, no Registry change is going to get it working. Your only possible solution is getting a BIOS that supports S3. This is a tough ask as it's a considerable amount of work to put this support back in.

Sorry,
