screen brightness laptop not Fn-key related??

[Guest]

Hello, my problem is the following, I played a dos-game what I found and
downloaded somewhere online(nvdr. Celtics vs. Lakers), the controls didn't
work, but this is not a problem, I noticed that the brightness of my laptop's
screen went down significantly, I have no explication why??

Now it looks like my laptop is on battery-mode(the funny thing is also that
if I switch over to battery, that it goes EVEN darker, so there is an interal
error somewhere)

This stays after a new start-up, I also switch over to Windows settings that
worked before, but screen stays not bright enough.

I looked in my BIOS already, but there is nothing corresponding to screen
brightness.

Also not in my settings or energy settings.

On my laptop there isn't an Fn+ shortcut to screen brightness, of this I'm
sure also.

Could anyone help me, because this just isn't fun anymore.

My best regards,

Matias

Matias, try doing a System Restore to before you played the DOS game.
Start>Programs>Accessories>System Tools>System Restore, then "restore
my computer to an earlier time". If that doesn't work, try reinstalling
your video drivers. Get the drivers from the laptop mftr.'s website for
your specific model machine.

Yes I did reinstal my drivers and replaced them with the newer ones,
I also did a system restore, but nothing changed(that's what I meant when I
said that I changed my Windows to the settings that worked before, sorry I
didn't came up with the term "system restore" at that time.)

Any more suggestions??

Sorry, no. Perhaps it is a hardware failure and the DOS game was
coincidental. It's really not possible to tell without seeing the
machine. Consider taking the laptop to a local professional or calling
the laptop's tech support people.

Your video card doesn't have a control panel where you can adjust the
brightness? Right click on your desktop/properties/settings/advanced button.
