I’ve installed a few games that haven’t recognize the Nvidia GPU, defaulted to the Intel chip and had to be manually configured (i.e.
Did I even have Integrated Intel graphics? A few articles suggested the only way to fix a problem like mine was through settings in the BIOS. Additionally, no amount of online searches brought me any closer to finding a solution. No amount of rooting through Windows 10 allowed me any access to any Intel-related graphic settings. The registry edits suggested by the article also proved impossible because the corresponding file location wasn’t present. …I didn’t have an option to access the Intel graphics settings. This setting was a redundant adaptive brightness routine that was overriding the Windows 10 version. The root problem appeared to be a power management setting for the integrated Intel graphics. I searched and searched online for an answer to my problem and came across an excellent article suggesting a myriad of different solutions: But when the laptop is operating on battery power the adaptive brightness setting is completely ignored. When my Razer Blade is plugged in Windows respects the setting and everything is just fine (well, usually- sometimes I do have to restart my laptop). This brings you to a pop-up box and under the “Display” options you can switch adaptive brightness on or off. You simply open your “power options” then navigate to “change plan settings” and the click the “change advanced power settings” link. In theory it’s very simple to turn the setting off.
The effect is extremely noticeable in an application like Photoshop (the GUI is dark-themed) and the screen dims to the point where white looks like gray and it’s difficult to do any real work. Why anyone would choose to have the adaptive brightness enabled is beyond me. In case you are unfamiliar with the adaptive brightness setting here’s the gist: your screen backlight is automatically dimmed when anything on the desktop is a darker color. This latest issue has to do with the adaptive brightness “feature” that’s included in Windows 10.
However, once in awhile some small issue will pop up and drives me nearly insane. For the most part I love my Razer Blade 15 and it’s been a reliable Clydesdale workhorse that looks like a thoroughbred Arabian.
