The brightness slider under Display settings disappeared today. I have tried numerous troubleshooting options, but nothing has worked. I uninstalled the monitor drive and reinstalled it to no avail.

Rather than looking at the monitor driver, take a look at the display driver. Make sure that you have a current driver. For some systems, it may be necessary to have an OEM version of the display driver from the maker of the system in order to control brightness.

THAT WORKED! Thank you so much. I must have spent over 2 hours going over and over the troubleshooting options until I found this forum.
