    Screen auto dims on anything fullscreen


    Whenever I open anything fullscreen, my screen dims all the way to zero. I have followed many of the instructions online that has worked for others i.e Reinstall drivers, updating windows, restarting graphics adapter, disabling adaptive brightness, changing nvidia graphics settings, changing power plan to high performance but nothing worked for me. However I did realise that only the NVIDIA GeForce 1060 GPU has the issue Intel GPU and Windows basic gpu worked fine . Does anyone know how to fix this, this has been bugging me for days.

    Computer model: ASUS ROG STRIX G702VM
    GPU: NVIDIA GeForce 1060
    OS: Windows 10 64-bit

    Asus laptop automatically dims screen when I start a software/game in fullscreen

    My laptop is an ASUS with two GPUs:

    • (Integrated) Intel hd graphics 520. I think this manages the monitor.
    • (Discrete) Nvidia geforce 940M. For games.
      Both have the latest drivers.

    What happens is when I start a game, the screen dims and I am unable to increase the brightness. Some notes:

    • The backlight keyboard also acts up. Turns itself on.
    • It only occurs in fullscreen mode.
    • I have "adaptive brightness" turned off in display settings (I have no adaptive brightness option in power options).
    • Some people on other threads mention the "Intel Power Saving technology". I have no such setting in my Intel control panel.

    Everything is absolutely fine outside programs. But only when I start games in fullscreen, this happens. It's quite annoying.

    I think my issue is the same as this: Can't disable auto screen dimming on ASUS laptop Windows 10
    However I do not see an option to turn off power saving tech in my control panel (Intel command center).

    How to automatically dim secondary monitor, when app is fullscreen?

    maximised windows work - its fullscreen that doesnt.

    going back to topic of the dimming, i'm not sure... i think CCC profiles would affect both screens.
