Sony :: TT11M/N Screen Brightness

Nov 6, 2009

i am using my TT in the dark, once i turn the lights off in my room, the screen becomes dim. So it kinda makes it hard to see the keyboard. So i have to turn the lights on so i can see it clearly, how can i prevent this?

I have checked the power plan and i have all of them set up to maximum brightness. I just want the screen to remain as bright as it does when the lights are on. It was dim when i purchased my TT a few months back. Then i did a restore and it was cool. Then i did another restore and it went back to being dim. This was even though the restores when done were the exact same to a tee. I didn't mess with any settings.

Sony :: Vaio TT11M/N

Jul 14, 2009

I am looking to purchase this vaio. I have a few questions which i would like to ask.

I am looking to purchase it from the site below as it is very cheap and would like to know if anyone has any idea of how good this site is?

[url]

If later on i wanted to upgrade this vaio with a blu-ray drive, is it easy to do so? I know that you need 4GB RAM, which i will upgrade to later on.

How easy is it to increase the HD size? If i decided to put 250GB HD, how would that work? If i create recovery disc, would i use that to install the OS on a new HD?

also out of the 120GB HD, how much is actually available if you take into account the recovery partition and all the OS and SW which is installed? I plan to create the recovery discs and get rid of the partition.

Sony :: Vaio Z11 Screen Brightness

May 22, 2010

I just got a z11 and will be returning my macbook pro soon.

The only thing that is making me hesitant is the screen brightness of the z. With the plug in and full brightness, it's not that bright, at least NO WHERE NEAR as bright as the macbook pro with high res anti-glare. Is this normal?

How many of you Z owners find the screen brightness too low? Even at full, it feels dim.

Sony :: New Vaio Z With 1920 Screen- On The Brightness

Apr 1, 2010

received the new Z 7 days ago, great is just a great little notebook, the best i had (coming from an SZ premium).

The only thing that is killing me is the auto brightness, the resolution is the 1920x and in dim light the brightness is going down, after 1 hour my eyes are red. The only thing that i can do is putting the lamp directly on top of the keyboard so the sensor adjusts the brightness to the maximum level.

What can i do? I can't find a way to turn down the auto brightness....

Sony :: VGN-FJ180P Screen Brightness Not Changeable

Oct 19, 2009

I have recently purchased a used Vaio laptop, model number VGN-FJ180P.

When I first got it, the battery was dead. So I assumed that my problem with the screen brightness was due to needing a new battery. Basically, when I use the screen brightness keys, I see the meter change on-screen, but none of the settings have any effect on the actual brightness of the LCD screen itself.

I spent a lot of time cleaning out the junk, unnecessary programs, etc. Then I proceeded to install all necessary Windows updates, as well as all the necessary Vaio updates. I have run extensive maintenance on this laptop, and have made sure that it is malware free. I then proceeded to read up on possible Fn key problems, and made sure I had all of the right software installed to ensure proper functionality of Fn keys. To be clear, all my Fn keys work fine, and all onscreen meters/graphics that pertain to them show up. It's just that the screen brightness can't be changed...............

Lenovo T400 / T500 :: No On Screen Display Of Caps Lock / Volume / Screen Brightness

May 27, 2014

I updated the BIOS to 2.26 a while ago and ever since then there's no on-screen indication of caps lock on/off, screen brightness or volume when I change it. Since it seemed to be affected by BIOS, I updated again to 2.27 just now, but the problem persists. I needed to update the Hotkeys Feature Integration by downloading the utility thingy from this page. Probably wasn't a BIOS thing after all.

Jun 20, 2009

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.

Dell :: Ultrasharp Screen Brightness?

Nov 23, 2009

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.

Acer :: Timeline Screen Brightness Goes Up And Down

Aug 8, 2009

i just installed Win 7 RC 64bit.

now, after every drivers/applications installed, i notice screen brightness goes up and down by itself, (it dims then goes back to bright).

This only happens when Power Saver button is pressed (lit green).
It did not do this with Win 7 32bit.

i assume, it is power saving feature interfering with win 7's power scheme.
Kinda cool.. but just wanted to know anyone else is having this *cool* trick..

HP/Compaq :: HP 8510w- Screen Brightness

Feb 18, 2009

I have been very satisfied with this purchase, however, after installing either vista service pack 1 or the nvidia drivers for my graphics card, the screen has significantly dimmed to the point where even max brightness is almost unusable. Before it was very bright, and this is a brand new display put in yesterday... so I know it's not a hardware flaw. What do you think is causing this, and how can I fix the problem short of restoring again and either foregoing SP1 or my videocard drivers?

Dell :: Vostro 1400 Screen Brightness.

Oct 18, 2009

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.

Dell :: Xps1330 Screen Brightness And Win7

Jun 3, 2009

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

Dell :: Adjusting Screen Brightness On E6400

Jan 31, 2009

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?

Dell :: E4300 Windows 7 And Screen Brightness

May 7, 2009

Just installed Windows 7 on my E4300. This is the first time I'm trying out an OS other than XP (never touched Vista)

Most of the components seem to work well.

Can anyone tell me if they got the screen brightness (Fn + up, down or left arrows) to work? I can see the toggle on the screen move from left to right in the settings, but the actual screen doesn't actually go dim or bright.

When I pull the power and run on batt, the screen dims (and I cannot make it brighter). And if it's on power, I cannot dim it either.

Is this a driver issue? Which driver? The closest one I see is the Video driver.

Also, does anyone also notice the mouse pad being sluggish?

I'm so used to very fast mouse where if I move my finger from the top right to the bottom left, the mouse arrow also does the same on the screen in one shot.

Acer :: 5810T Screen Brightness At 100% After Reboot

Oct 14, 2009

I set the power options to 50% brightness then click save changes and reboot, the display stays at 50% until about 30 seconds after i see the desktop and then the brightness goes to 100%

I have the brightness in the INTEL graphic properties, colour correction and brightness is set to -60 as low as it will go, and it says like that after reboot but the brightness still goes to 100%

Windows mobility center brightness does not fix the brightness either.

Dell :: Inspiron 6400 / E1505 Screen Brightness

Mar 29, 2010

I've had my trusty Dell Inspiron 6400 since 2006 and it's still going strong, but over the last couple of months

I've noticed that the screen doesn't appear to be as bright as it used to be. It's as if the brightness isn't set to full, but when you try to increase it you discover it is at full brightness.

Can LCD screens become dimmer over time and would a replacement screen fix this?

Dell :: D830 Adaptive Screen Brightness Win7

Dec 31, 2009

does anybody know how to get the Windows 7 built-in screen brightness control to work with the D830?

Manual brightness control via FN+Up/Down works perfect, but Windows 7 does not offer software brightness control in energy options.

My second notebook (5 years old Toshiba) offers this (you will see a brightness slider when clicking on the battery/energy symbol in system tray).
As a result Windows is dimming (not turning off) the display automatically after a few minutes idle time.
System is Latidtude D830 with Intel onboard graphics and 1680x1050 screen
