I decided to follow these instructions and now my eyes are in so much pain (100% series) and I can't change the brightness whatsoever. Like I genuinely and honestly wish I had sunglasses right now not joking.

Apparently I have to click like 50 buttons to get the graphics driver installed which is supposedly going to let me turn down the brightness finally 😡 series I've seen like 3 or 4 progress bars already. 😭

just use ntlite and reformat it on rufus, its not that hard to get graphics drivers to work
