G751JM Screen is too dark in game to play anything.

[Mugibrr]

So, when in game (WoW), the screen on this laptop is SO dark. It's totally normal otherwise. In this picture, the screen brightness is set to the highest setting. There are no brightness settings in game, but I've never had to use any...until now. Is there any way to fix this?

Are you playing plugged in ? Go to the ASUS game tweak thing and see if you have a preset set to something that is doing this, like Theater for example

The power options are on balanced and max brightness when plugged in or not plugged in.

Asus GPU Tweak window just has stuff in there about the fan, temperature, and memory. I don't see anything about any different graphics modes or whatever.


I called Asus support and they said its basically just WoW...which isn't true. I have four other computers here that each run the game fine without this issue. You'd think the most expensive computer, which is actually made for gaming, would be the one without problems!

Go to the control panel Nvidia and set gamma settings at 1.5.

My Nvidia control panel only has options to change:
"3D Settings:
- Adjust image settings with preview
- Manage 3D settings
- Set PhysX configuration"

there are no other options in the Nvidia control panel.

If yo uhave settings missing, then it looks like manually upgrading your GPU drivers may have caused an issue... uninstall them completely and then install the ones from the ASUS website.
