Guys, need some help here icon_question.gif

I got a Alienware M15x for around 4 months and just few hours ago I got this problem,

The laptop screen dimming does not revert to previous setting after it dim (dim when away for 15-20 minutes) sad.gif

So I have to actually manually pressing 'Fn + F4' to increase the brightness.

It gets annoying especially when I am using youtube. It dims whenever I watch something and I have to revert it back manually.
I went to administrative tools > Service > disable AlienFusion and yet problem still occur

Anyway to solve this?
I tried to search around the forum but couldn't find any post or topic related to this.

You can try to disable auto dim by navigate to power options. Under advance power option there got display management and you can put the auto dim to off. Hope that help. smile.gif

You mean the power plan settings?
I selected the 'Never' and it should be alright

But the thing is I'm little disappointed since the auto dim doesn't work at all. Not that I want to save power.
Its more like...the feeling of 'there are no way to solve the problem other than switching it off'?

Well anyway thanks smile.gif

Edited: The power setting doesn't solve the problem. It still dim and I have to set it back manually zzzz doh.gif

Oh I went to the battery option instead of AlienFusion cause I thought I disable it already
I enable it now and switch the auto dim off. Will see what happen next smile.gif
