    disable cab or dpst in dell inspiron 7373
    « on: August 08, 2018, 11:13:24 AM »
    brightness changes according to the content on screen.
    it is "content adaptive brightness" or intel "digital power saving technology".
    dell says it is a "feature" and works "as intended"
    it is very annoying while watching movies or doing any other simple tasks.
    i tried some guides to tweak in registry but it doesn't worked
    please help me to disable it.

    That topic was in the Dell support last month. Was that you?

    And before that...

    Inspiron auto brightness adjust

    There are over a dozen post or links that sound just Ike your issue.  I did not see any reference to a registry edit. At least one said you have to update the BIOS.

    EDIT: This is not just about Dell. It is an Intel thing.
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intel_Display_Power_Saving_Technology

    IMHO Thia was a dumb idea.It was never tested on a large group of people to see if it was acceptable to everybody.  Of course, what I think does not matter any.

    A Google search does not show any "fix" that will work for everybody. There is a post on Facebook,  but it is not an official fix.

    Do a Google for:
    disable Intel Display Power Saving Technology

    More... When you buy a laptop, check for this:
