Hi, I read your tutorial because I’m facing a specific issue with my ASUS F510QA, that has the same processor to the model discussed. My screen’s brightness drops randomly and becomes very dark, and I can only resolve it by restarting the laptop. Adjusting brightness with the keyboard doesn’t work during this issue. Has anyone else had this problem or knows how to fix it? Could it be related to the processor/igp drivers or something else? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
