Is there a known "bug" that does not allow this feature to work anymore? I had upgraded the graphics card itself recently and was hoping this new driver for another graphics card entirely would have resolved this, but the functioning of the brightness control is still doing nothing. In the Nvidia Control Panel, the brightness level used to work until I had updated the graphics card drivers in which it does nothing when adjusting the brightness slider and clicking apply. In the end, i installed the Samsung Easy Disply Manager (XP Driver) from their site, and all works well now □Īh right, I used the Vista version of Easy Display Manager, but without the changes to the BIOS the Easy Display Manager didn’t work.Hello. I couldn’t adjust my brightness even after the bios setting was changed (My version of windows 7 is 7068) ![]() I know that this slider should be there, but it is missing for me, I imagine there is some policy or other hiding it, or possibly because the Samsung power management software has hidden it, when I re-install soon I will definately check this before I install the power mangement software.

Sweet, thanks man I only just noticed I could not change my brightness levels! ![]() Thomas Morley said this on Maat 2:05 pm | Reply Brightness issue was really starting to annoy me. I will continue to pursue this though and hopefully write a new post with the updates.Ħ Responses to “Windows 7 – Display Brightness Problem” ![]() I saved the BIOS settings and booted back up to Windows 7, and the shortcut keys on my keyboard to control brightness worked like a dream, however I still could not find the controls in the Windows Mobility Center, or in the Power Options. So I toggled the Brightness Mode Control to User Control, by hitting F6 to give the following screen:. Well the display brightness keys were only working sporadically, and generally when plugged into the AC power supply.Ī quick search around the web revealed little but did see mentions of there possibly being controls in the BIOS to control brightness, So after rebooting my machine, I hit F2 to enter the BIOS and switched to the Boot options and saw the following:. I have the Vista version of Samsung’s ‘Easy Display Manager’ installed and this is supposed to enable keyboard hotkeys etc. However it was not present on my system, in fact not of the controls were listed. I was having a problem with controlling the display brightness in Windows 7, according to the document that can be downloaded from Microsoft at – there should be Brightness slider in both the Windows Mobility Center (Shortcut – Windows Key+X, or my right clicking the power icon in the system tray) and the Power Options (reached from either by the Controls panel – Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Power Options, or by right clicking on the power icon in the system tray). I haven’t posted for a while as I was going to do a post detailing how I installed Mac OSX on my NC10 netbook, but I am going to re-install both Windows 7 and OSX in the near future, this time with the help of a new slimline external DVD-RW, so I will detail what I do this new time I re-install them.
