@ElderRoth did this just start happening in the past few days? I heard something similar from someone on the Discord server yesterday and it happened after recent Windows Updates.
It's possible that one of the recent updates is conflicting with a display or graphics driver. I would try going directly to Intel and Nvidia/AMD to find the most recent graphics driver. You can also try updating the Alienware OSD driver.
You can also try finding a restore point before the latest updates. This could reverse the issue and help pinpoint the reason.

Hi @ElderRoth welcome to this free user to user Alienware laptop discussion forum.
Please look at Area-51m R2, screen brightness stopped working - Dell Community, and Brightness not working on my brand new Area-51m R2, help please! : Alienware (reddit.com).
Try Intel® Driver & Support Assistant.
