The Acer Nitro 5 AN515 is not an old computer. Instead, it is my current machine. It is allegedly a laptop but has become a desktop.

Ever since the NVMe SSD was installed, the computer might hang when restarting. This is a firmware issue since the keyboard light doesn't automatically turn off when this happens. So, instead, shutdown the computer and then start it.
Several keys on the internal keyboard are unresponsive, such as Left Ctrl, S.
