how to brighten the screen? For some reason it became dim. I know there's a way to brighten the screen, but am unsure how to get started. Can anybody help?
does this mean to just press the button on the top row that says f8? or are there some extra keys that I need to know about?
If this turns off the screen, then how will I turn it back on?
What is to be done at the video output?
You hold the key that's labeled "FN" and the key at the top, that's labeled "F8". Doing this will brighten your screen.
Some laptops are different, but this key combo is common. What laptop do you have?
This is the information that I could find: it's HP Pavilion Entertainment PC and its processor is AMD Turion (tm) 64 x 2 Mobile Technology TL - 62. Not sure where to find more information.
Your laptop will dim your screen to save battery life. There are simple programs or sidebar gadgets you can get that will let you control the brightness.
