About Lauren Bennett Expertise I am a computer science major and my dad is an Electric Engineering, so my life has revolved around computers. For as long as I can remember, I have been buying and selling computers. I tend to travel a lot, so I have always had a laptop. I have bought 5 of them for myself, and bought around 30-40 for friends and family. I have dealt with the good and the bad of various version and brand names. If you are in need of buying a laptop, feel free to contact me and I'm sure I will be able to guide you into purchasing the laptop that will be the best fit for you. I will custom build you computers for you to choose from so you can get an exact idea of what to go and buy when you do it yourself and so that you have an exact price. However, I am in the USA and am only knowledgeable about computers here in the US. I do not know about foreign currency or the quality of computer brand names outside the US.
Experience B.S. in Computer Science. Buying and selling for years. Assisting friends/family.
Question hi there my laptops screen is nice and bright (how it should be) when the chargers on, but when i take the charger off the screen goes dim and dark. i have looked in control panel on my laptop and everywhere else but i cant find something that allows me to change the brightness.
Answer It is set up that way to preserve battery power. You can change it for your current session by holding down the Fn key and pressing the up arrow. If you'd like to change the setting so it is that way every time, you'll need to do it through Quickset. Sometimes it is in the list of icons next to your clock. The icon reminds me of of a heart, but it is blue-ish in color. If you cannot find it, just run a search for it. There you can change settings, such as screen brightness when on AC and battery power, how long until the screen turns off, how long until it goes into sleep mode, what happens when you shut the top, etc.
Hope this helps!! Let me know if you have any other questions or run into any problems.
