    When I'm using my G1S with an external monitor, a few seconds after booting into windows both monitors dim to about half brightness. I assume this is some sort of power saving feature but I have no idea how to disable it.

    I have already disabled power saving in bios and under power settings in the control panel. Please help.

    looks like ACPI or GPU driver bug. Did you try updating those drivers (ACPI which is called ATK on the website, and GPU drivers). Perhaps it's a bug with one of them, or an incompatibility between the particular versions of each, that you are using.
