Screen brightness.

[malagabob]

The brightness on the screen of my laptop is very dim. I assume it might be some kind of power saving but i have not to my knowledge changed anything, But other members of my family borrow it sometimes. I have had a look but dont want to start selecting things that might alter other settings.

Has one of the function keys at the top got a picture of a sun on it? Is so, hold down the function, FN, and press the key with the picture of the sun. On mine it's F4

The screen will often dim if you are running on battery rather than mains power, to save battery life.
