Hey.
I have vortex 4 15.6" clevo, running windows 7 with gtx 770m and i7-4700mq.
This was not happening before but then one morning when I went on laptop I noticed that brightness was adjusting itself... I went to the power options and tried setting it to what I like but it didn't let me - I could slide to max or min brightness but its 0 effect, like the slider didn't work. Sometimes brightness would jump to high, then to low, etc, by itself. I tried resetting the power plan profiles, and going through all options as well but there was nothing related to it. And sometimes it would stop adjusting itself and I could use slider. But there was no difference in what I was doing - all that time I would just browse or watch a movie.
I read online about that sensor which detects room brightness and changes laptop's brightness, so I went to services and found that Automatic brightness service, which I disabled. But it still adjusts itself.
Could it be hardware fault in any way?
