    Hey, I recently just updated my graphic drivers and after installing and restarting the display on my m11x isnt as bright as it used to be graphics wise. The screen is full brightness and in high powerplan etc. On my 2nd screen the graphic display is bright and what it used to be on my laptop. Any reason why this is happening?

    What version m11x do you have?

    If R1: Go into Nvidia Control panel and go to video settings (something like that) maybe the brightness reset.

    If R2/R3: Go to intel graphics settings and try that.
