I just purchased this laptop and right away noticed I cannot adjust the screen brightness. It is on maximum brightness and no matter what I try I cannot change that. I have tried removing and reinstalling drivers, rebooting the laptop, etc. Any help would be appreciated. I Have tried to go to advance power settings and change brightness there was no option under display to dim or change brightness.
