Neither of these things was ever an issue for my laptop with Windows 7 installed. Putting the power cord back in or sliding the brightness bar back above ~60%, as the case may be, causes the display to immediately turn back on. Sliding the brightness bar down from 100% changes nothing, until it gets to around 60%, at which point the laptop display turns off completely, just like it does when I unplug the power cord. I mean the screen looks the same as if I totally shut down the system and turn everything off.Īlso, ever since upgrading to Windows 10, I can no longer change the brightness on the display.

When I say the screen "turns off," I don't mean that it's a blank screen with some backlight. I've tried setting this to Never, but it makes no difference. Power plan settings say: On battery power, turn off after 10 minutes. With a second monitor attached, the second monitor is unaffected and stays on. Immediately upon unplugging the power cord, the screen on the laptop turns off. I'm running Windows 10 64-bit on my ASUS N61JQ laptop.
