    I installed Windows 10 Pro on my L521X last night and the brightness controls worked UNTIL the system updated.

    I figured it was just a simple display driver issue, so I figured that the Windows 10 drivers from Dell would fix it.

    They didn't.

    I tried using the device manager to update the drivers for the video card and display, but they are already up to date.

    I tried to roll them back, but there's nothing to roll back to.

    Any way I can get back to a working state?

    TIA

    I am using l521x too. We must wait for update driver from dell or you can change bios settings. Secure boot - disable, legacy boot - Enable. You can change brightness. But your device not show Dell logo when boot.

    Thanks!

    I'll try that. Is there any other disadvantage to running that way?
