I got my Dell Studio 15 today. Everything seems fine except for the fact that the screen hurts my eyes ....
I tried lowering the brightness levels but it really is the contrast. My older laptop (inspiron) was fine. What can I do?
bright spot can only see in bright colors.

How bright is the keyboard back lighting? Is it as bright as the Macbook Pros?
Anyone know the contrast ratio(and other specs) for the LED screen of the XPS M1330?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI've noticed that the screen doesn't seem to be evenly lit. For example when I set the desktop background to black, it looks pretty black at the top of the screen, but as I look further down towards the bottom it turns almost medium gray/blue-ish.
I've tried all brightness, contrast and gamma settings with no luck.
Has anyone else seen this problem, and is it a reason for sending back the laptop? Or is this something "you get" for buying a lower-end laptop like the 1545?
How do i have my screen stay bright after i have taken out my charger.

Im not sure what the brightness rating on my old dv8300 laptop. Are these screens comparable?
Why my screen dims before I login. I got this new laptop and it loads up it's bright then it dims before I login. I tried updating the video drivers it came bright again. It ask me to reboot. The same problem before I login. It doesn't matter if it's plug in or on battery.
View 4 Replies View RelatedAfter having my XPS 13 for a couple of months I have noticed a bright blemish appearing on the screen.
It remains in the same place regardless of screen aspect so it seems to be the screen itself rather than a software/driver issue.
Rather than being one bright pixel it appears as an indistinct and irregular bright patch roughly in the middle of the screen.
What is happening with the laptop, sometimes I noticed my laptop screen will flicker(or a bright flash as if someone was taking a picture). When I go to the event viewer it tells me Desktop windows service manager has been disabled by the windows system assessment tool. I'I have the nvidia graphics card + Intel(using optimus technology),running windows 7 professional 64 bit.
I forgot to mention when playing videos I think the graphic card makes a strange noise like there isn't enough power or something (Not 100% sure)
I have nvidia gt555 with intel Optimus
Intel 2670m
8GB of RAM
Windows 7 professional
I tried to do a fresh install of windows 7 but the problem still persists and I cannot test it since I have deleted the recovery Drive. How do I test if the graphics card is working properly

Is there any way I could get a replacement screen with a better contrast ratio?

I just got a new HP Pavilion G4-1310au. My problem is that it did not have any OS installed and so no system drivers were installed either. In the box I only got a CD that has HP manual in it and nothing else and the notebook of course, the power cord, bag, and some printed manual. I was expecting to see a System Disk CD so I could install the system drivers, but I didn't find one.
So I installed the OS and then installed the network driver which I downloaded from another computer and also the audio. My problem is that I cannot find a launcher that would control the brightness and contrast of the screen. I tried FN key plus F3 or F2 keys but it didn't work.
How I can control the brightness and contrast or better yet if there is a Launcher software where I can control all the features of this notebook? By the way, I don't know how to enable the bluetooth either.
This is my back up laptop that I let my 13yro daughter use here @ home. It's never been taken out of the house, another words not thrown around @ airports, jostled in subways, train etc, another words taken very good care of.

Would you recommend the new EliteBook 8540w or 8440w? Do these have really bright screens that are good for outside use? I need good battery life too.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI recently purchased an Acer Switch 11. I noticed that I wasn't able to adjust the display contrast, using the left/right arrows and "FN" key. Through a chat session, an Acer technician recommended that I reinstall the Intel VGA Driver through Acer Recovery Management. I followed his instruction, and it worked. However, later I noticed that I could not longer adjust the contrast. I could see the indicator move up and down in the upper left-hand corner of the screen, but the contrast wouldn't changed. I once again reinstalled the Intel VGA Driver, and it corrected the problem.
After re-installing the driver a second time, I decided I would leave the tablet plugged into the keyboard. Every fifteen minutes or so, I would unplug the display to see if the contrast changed. Based on my settings, it did change as desired. I did this for several hours. Later, I decided to remove the display from the keyboard. Initially, I was still able to adjust the contrast. However, after 10 minutes or so, I no longer could make adjustments. At that point, I placed the display back into the keyboard dock. I tried to see if it being locked into the keyboard was required in order to make contrast changes. It still didn't work. I then reinstalled the Intel VGA Driver and corrected the problem. I have kept it plugged into the keyboard, and I can still make adjustments.
I am having an issue with the screen of my laptop. had bought the laptop jus 3 days back.. :( the problem I am facing is that... once I close my lid and open in in a few seconds, it still gives me a blck scree which does not respond. however If the let the lid be closed for a longer period life 10 sec it works normally. Previously today I experienced an other issue, that was, once I closed the lid and opened it back, it gave me a black screen with one bright spot. bt this was gone after pressing the power button a few times.
View 1 Replies View RelatedYesterday I have noticed a problem with the display in my X220 (type 4290-W1B). There is a small, white spot (about 1 mm diameter), clearly visible on the screen. It doesn't look like a normal bad pixel, but like a problem with the background light, or something. It is not visible when black color is displayed. The laptop was bought about 3 months ago and everything was OK until yesterday.
I have attached some pictures of this dot, but it is difficult to capture it with the camera (it is much more visible in real). I have marked the spot (it is in the middle of the circle). The pics are in high resolution so you can zoom in.
What should I do now? I have heard , that the Lenovo bad pixel policy is 3 bad pixel per display...

Was this ever resolved? I am having the same issue on the same computer that I cannot manually adjust the screen brightness using the function + F2 or function + F3 screen brightness keys.
View 1 Replies View RelatedAt the top of the screen, images look darker and crisper and at the bottom they look more bright and less detail.
Here's an example of an icon that should look the same, but it looks distinctly different (and it's not the camera exposure -- what you see is more or less how it is). Should I return the machine and get another? Do you think Apple will even consider it an issue if I wanted to get it replaced? Do you guys have the same thing? I only noticed when I had a lot of the same icon scattered on my desktop and the same icon looks noticeably different. Of course, I am always the person to notice anything about electronics whereas other people would never have so much as a clue. even though the video files are what got me seeing that things are different, you can kind of see it with the folder icons as well.
I have a new T540p with Windows 8.1 and fn+f5/f6 do nothing, while sound buttons work fine. Is there any way to change screen backlight brightness, coz it too birght for me by default.
View 1 Replies View RelatedA few days ago I fired up my dv6 Pavilion 3240us and it did something weird. The colors are sort of out of whack. Bright white area show as Cyan and dark areas (black) are a sort of Burgundy or deep red. I can adjust the contrast down a little and the brightness down to -13 and the cyan mostly goes away, but the dark areas are even more more red.
I update the Catalyst app and drivers and did a complete update of Windows 7 (which took around 24 hours and it still wants more time) to no avail.
How did it happen? One day it was working perfectly and it shut down normally. The next day it was screwed up. Nothing happened to the machine between those times. I would show you pictures but I've found that screenshots of it look normal on other machines, eg: my desktop.
At one point yesterday when I tried playing a game on it the problen suddenly cleared up. That lasted for a few minutes before reverting the the screwed up state.
I am writing this on it; it does work. But trying to look at videos or most pictures or games it looks really wild, many times too strange to see what's going on.
