Windows 10: Screen Dimming and GPU Hardware acceleration,

Hi there, I am Akshit Gupta, I had a query about two things

First:- I have an HP LAPTOP with windows 10 2004 version, Now the issue is that, when I use it while charging plugged in to charger, it works fine, but when I switch off the charger, and use it on battery, what happens is, its screen first stays fine for some time then it dims on itself, i raise the screen brightness, first to fullest then to the level on which i want it, it still remains dim and suddenly it goes bright back to normal, but this dimming of screen happens after every sometime, and it is a pain in head, to again and again, first brighten it then back, and then brighten it and back and then back to regain the normal brightness, if I don't do it, screen remains dim for the whole time, I thought it was for saving the battery or something, but screen goes too much dimmer that it is difficult to see the screen. i need to do this procedure of brightening and dimming after every like 10 minutes or so, Do you have any solution to this?? I searched on web about it and everywhere it almost said about changing or doing something with the battery power plans, I tried following them but I couldn't find any of the options or solutions they were recommending, some were saying to change some display adapter settings, in the advanced power settings or something, in the power plans, but there was no option of any display adapter settings there, I am using HP POWER PLANwhich is recommended in HP laptops. Pls Help me with this?!?



SECOND:- I wanted to ask what does this setting of "Hardware accelerated GPU- scheduling do in the "Graphics settings" in windows 10.I do some gaming also on my laptop, Is this feature useful or does this feature harm?? I have a low end Graphics Card MX 250. Would This feature Be useful to me? Should I enable this feature , I couldn't find any satisfactory results regarding this. Please help me with this, it would be a great help.


I have an HP PAVILION 15 cs3006tx.

Hope this helps. Please reply for further queries on this.

 

Hardware-accelerated GPU scheduling causing BSOD

Hi, I seem to be getting BSOD when using Hardware-accelerated GPU scheduling = ON.

My configuration is:

• OS: Windows 10 2004 (build 19041.388)
• Motherboard: Asrock z77 extreme4 motherboard with Intel HD graphics 4000
• GPU: Gigabyte GeForce GTX 1080

Windows features enabled:

• Virtual machine platform
• windows hypervisor platform
• windows sandbox
• windows subsystem for linux

I have one monitor (monitor1) connected to the GTX 1080 card, and the other (monitor2) to my integrated graphics on my motherboard. I have WSL2 and Docker running fine on my PC, so interoperability with Hyper-V is working well.

I have noticed that when I set Hardware-accelerated GPU scheduling = ON, my PC has a BDOD whenever I place specific applications (like Remote Desktop Connection) within monitor2 which is using Intel HD graphics 4000. I also noticed I get a lot of HAXM errors in my event viewer e.g. HAXM can't work on system without VT support . I'm guessing my problems are a result of HAXM not being compatible with Hyper-V, so that when Hardware-accelerated GPU scheduling = ON, it is trying to use HAXM for GPU acceleration on monitor2 (using Intel HD graphics 4000), which then results in a BSOD? The BSOD error reports a problem with dxgmms1.sys.

I have ordered some DisplayPort cables so that both monitors will run from the GPU, and will disable integrated graphics to avoid problems like this in the future.

Thanks for any insight.

 

intel graphics & 'hardware acceleration' in chrome

It is not just for video decoding.

If you go to chrome://gpu you can see what is being accelerated.
