Dell :: Studio XPS 16 RBGLED Brightness Problem
May 25, 2009
I've done some search but couldn't find the solution to the following problem: Each time I turn on my SXPS, the display brightness is at the max. I had to Fn+Down to lower it. Moreover, a single Fn+Down press seems to lower the brightness considerably (more than by one notch).
If I then reboot, the brightness remains okay (to the level I've adjusted it to) but if I shutdown and turn it back on, the display resets to max brightness.
One final strange thing: I could not find the brightness settings in Windows. Normally, it's accessible in the Power Options (on the left pane) or if you click on one of the power profiles.

I have a problem with the LCD brightness...the LCD is very dim most the time (regardless of adapter or not)
Everytime I restart, the brightness is back to normal until window has finished loading, and then the brightness of the screen will suddenly dim alot and will continue to be dim until I restart again. I tried to edit this using power management but it does not work.
I also tried to adjust the brightness by pressing Fn and up arrow but the brightness is already set to max. The problem is that the brightness is correct on boot up but does not sustain that brightness after loaded.

For some reason the brightness on my lcd isn't adjustable. It's stuck at full brightness, on battery, on power, doesn't matter. I've had this laptop for about 2 weeks now. When I first got it, the brightness levels were working, but now they are not. OS is Windows 7 Home.
FN - Brightness Down brings up a on screen display showing the brightness level at full and goes down by about 1, though I see no different in the brightness. It doesn't matter how many times I press the button, it never goes down more than 1.
Control Panel -> Display -> Adjust Brightness -> Power Options: The slider at the bottom shows the brightness level at lowest setting. The FN - Brightness adjustment will move this slider up / down on the scale, but there is no change in the screen brightness.
Anyone have any ideas as to why I can not adjust the brightness and how I can get it back to where I can adjust it?

You know how you're supposed to be able to change the brightness with fn + up/down keys? Well its not working.
Tried reinstalling the video driver and bios.

I've just received a new Studio 1537 with the WXGA LED display and I can't seem to find the setting to auto adjust the LCD brightness in the Power Options. For that matter I can't even find the settings in the bios either

So I turn the brightness as low as it goes and finish up as quietly and quickly as I can but when there's a white background it's still kind of bright and I was just wondering if there was a way to turn down the brightness on the display even lower than what the power options let me do

I am running Windows 7 x64 RC1 and whenever I put the computer out of sleep mode the screen brightness is at max.
I normally put it on minimum, but sleep doesn't remember that

Whenever I log into my laptop, past the login screen, the screen immediately darkens and becomes way too unsaturated and dark to view.
This doesn't occur doing the login screen and fixes itself when I run a Display test on Windows 7, but it reoccurs when I open a new program.

I am not able any longer to change the brigntness of the display via the known keys if the light sensor is deactivated.
If the light sensor is activated I can adjust the brightness but I do not like the sensor.
I can change the brightness without the sensor when I am in the BIOS and during windows is booting.
My system: Precision M4500 with Windows 7 Professional X64
.
The problem also occours with a fresh and pure Windows 7 Installation ..

I got my Dell 1557 about a month ago and for a while, it seemed just fine with my display brightness.
I could change it to however bright I want it to be. Then today, when I turned on my computer, my settings for my display brightness was at the highest when it normally is in the middle.
At first I thought nothing of it because I could easily change it with the F4 and F5 buttons, but after I logged on and tried to change it, nothing happened. Not even after I restarted the computer or reinstall the ATI Catalyst Center.

So I've been using the Dell E193FPp 19" lcd monitor for a few years now. It is a lower end model (not ultrasharp) that I purchased 3 years ago. I'm not sure if it's because of aging or maybe I'm becoming more picky, but I've noticed lately that the brightness on this monitor simply is awful. White looks dull and greyish. I have the brightness at 100 and I'm really unhappy with the way it all looks.
Is my issue to do with my monitor being old, it being connected to a Dell Dimension tower that is 7 years old, a VGA connection, or something else? In the past 2 weeks I've done a lot of research and learned about VA and IPS panels. I've love to purchase an IPS panel but I fear it won't be a big improvement because it would be attached to a old Dell tower. Is this correct?
I wanted to get a new mac mini but they were not released at Macworld last week. Any suggestions or thoughts would be appreciated. The white on my monitor is a joke compared to my macbook pro at it's highest bright setting.

I recently replaced the inverter in my Dell Xps M1530 laptop. I bought the inverter off ebay, and the listing said it was compatible for my laptop.
My problem is,
that since I replaced the inverter (screen looks great by the way), the brightness controls no longer do anything. The laptop is on constant highest brightness. If I use the Fn Up and Down arrows,
the brightness bar comes up on the bottom right of the screen and it actually moves left and right in line with what I am telling it to do, but the screen brightness doesn't change! I have tried going in to the power settings and display settings

I have a Dell Latitude E6400 and am extremely happy with it as I've had no major problems with it so far (touch wood), but just last week, the screen started to go dim and then bright, really annoyingly.
I can tell it must be to with the sensor thing below the screen as when I put my finger over it, it goes dimmer.

Everything had been fine until I did some updates, can't remember if this occurred after a video driver update or a BIOS update.
But now the display brightness maxes out at about half. When I hit Fn + up arrow, it starts off at about half and the little meter does go up (the sunshine puts on his shades), but the display brightness doesn't change at all.

I have a Dell Ultrasharp 1707FP. It is connected via DVI. I was looking at the on screen options, and i can only adjust the brightness.
My whites looked kinda yellow, and the whole screen did not really look that bright. but it still looked good, as i was very happy with it.
So i adjusted the brightness from 75 to 90, and it looks alot better, as now the whites are white and colors are also bright yet the dark colors are still dark.

My Vostro screen is really really dim, I've never noticed this until I compared it to other laptops and screens.
I was wondering how is your Vostro 1400? are you happy with the brightness?
I'm not sure what make of a screen I have but I'd gladly buy a new one and replace this one if I knew other screen makes for this model are brighter.
Here's the comparison shot with 1400 vs Vostro 1300, brightness of both is set to max.

I have a Dell Vostro 1500. While working on a Ispiron 1525 I noticed how much brighter the screen was than my Vostro.
I had the brightness turned up all the way on both notebooks. But the screen was noticeably brighter.
The Inspirons resolution was 1280x800 or something along that line.

After wake up from stand by mode my system brightness is always set 100%.
Adjustment '-' or '+' brightness in 1 degree returns it to bios values.
Anyone have similar problem?

I just installed Win7 RC 64-bit on my xps1330. Everything is working except the screen brightness setting.
Windows 7 screen brightness settings in power management act more like a switch than a slider. When set below a certain point, the screen either dims to a very low level and flickers, or turns off completely and the only way to restore it is to close the lid (sleep), and then wake the laptop.
The [func] + arrow keys also work erratically. As it stands, the screen can either be on full brightness, or very dimly lit and flickering, or off completely. Anyone else experiencing similar symptoms

I've reinstalled Windows Vista on my E6400.
I can controll the screen brightness with the [FN] + [UP] / [DOWN] keys, but I can't see if it's up 50%, 80%, 100% etc. Before the reinstall I could se this on the display via some sort of Dell-tool.
Which driver/tool should I install from Dell to be able to see the percentage again?
