I have a problem with my Asus ROG GL552VW. Lately it started powering on by itself when I plug it in. It doesn’t happen when it stays plugged in, only when unplugged and then plugged in again. When it starts up the keyboard backlight is turned off even tho I always have it on and it didn’t turn off on its own before. Another thing that happens is when it powers on by itself like that the date and time is messed up. I think that the date/time when it was unplugged stays. When that happens I can only change the date manually, but if I restart it, when I turn off and on again the “set time automatically”, only then it gets fixed (but I have to restart the laptop first). I tried scanning for viruses with my antivirus and a few files came up and I deleted them but nothing fixed. Does anybody have any idea what the problem is and how I can fix it?
Thanks in advance.
 
The automatic powering on when plugged in could be due to BIOS or power setting configurations. Try checking your power settings and BIOS settings to see if there are any options related to power management or automatic startup that could be causing this behavior. The keyboard backlight issue might be related to software or driver problems, so reinstalling the ATK package and Armoury Crate software from the Asus website may help. The date and time issue is likely related to a failing CMOS battery, which is responsible for maintaining your system's BIOS settings. Replacing the CMOS battery should resolve the time issue. If these steps don't resolve the problem, it might be worth having a professional technician take a look at the hardware.
