    I am going crazy, even when playing games, a minute of two of idleness, my screen goes into lockscreen.

  2. auto screen orientation

    Hi Eamonn,

    The auto rotation may have been locked that's why the screen orientation doesn't change automatically. To address this problem, we need to make sure that the auto rotation lock is off and that the auto-rotate is enabled. Follow these steps:

    • On your tablet, tap the Start menu, then choose Settings.
    • Go to System > Display.
    • Scroll down and set Lock rotation to Off.

    Let us know if you need further help.

    Regards.

  3. Lock Screen Dims (Brightness Auto Reduce at Lock Screen)

    Hi,

    Since you're having an issue with the brightness of your Lock Screen, we suggest uninstalling the display adapter from the Device Manager. Just follow the steps below:

    • Press Windows key + X.
    • Select Device Manager.
    • Locate and expand Display adapter.
    • Right-click on the display device and click uninstall.

    Note: Please restart your computer after performing the steps above.

    If the issue persists, download and install latest display driver from the computer manufacturer's website.

    Please update us with the status. We will be glad to assist you.

    Auto rotation

    Hello,

    Let us isolate your concern by answering the questions below:

    • What is the make and model of your device?
    • Have you checked on the action center if there is a Rotation lock option?
    In the meantime, we suggest that you check the Screen Resolution display to check if there is a setting to allow the screen to auto-rotate. Here are the steps:

    • Go to Control Panel.
    • Search for Display and then click Change display settings.
    • Mark the checkbox beside Allow the screen to auto-rotate option if possible.
    • Click Apply and then OK.
    We are looking forward to your response.
