    I have a problem with my screen brightness. If I leave my M11x Idle for about 5 minutes, the screen brightness just changes to the minimum brightness. This is really annoying when I'm trying to watch a movie ><. And yes I have all the windows power plan settings set so it doesn't do this, but it still does it. Oh and by the way it only happens on battery, when plugged in it works fine.

    You have to go into the advanced settings for that particular power plan and change the dim screen entries there.

    This is not directly related but does anyone know if with the M11 R2 you can change desktop color settings such as Digital Vibrance from the NVIDIA control panel like on non optimus based cards? Also, can the 335M be used to accelerate the Aero Desktop?
