    Hello!

    I have an Aspire 7535G with AMD 780G chipset, and an integrated HD3200 VGA and a discrete HD4570. The problem is under Windows 7: if I use the original VGA drivers from Acer's site, everything is okay, but if I update the driver from AMD's site, then the backlit won't turn off. When the screen would have to go off, it turns white. Dimming is okay, just it can't turn off the backlit. Anyone have a solution for this? Thanks!

    Another info: If i run the laptop from battery, then it uses the integrated HD3200 and not the dedicated HD4570. In this case, the screen goes off, as it have to.
