Can't change screen brightness in Windows 7 Home Premium 32 bit?

I recently updated my old A305 laptop Toshiba Satellite Windows Vista Home Premium 32 bit for Windows 7 Home Premium 32 bit and it does not allow me to change the brightness of the screen, when I use the sliders, then click on save changes, nothing happens, tried to restart anything, tried the monitor generic PnP Manager peripherals/monitors/uninstall and nothing happens , can someone please help me my screen is literally blinding my eyes!

Hello

Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

We would be happy to help you with the problem you are facing today. I understand the difficulty.

Here are the instructions for setting the display brightness. Basically you can adjust the gamma in Windows or adjust the brightness on the screen itself:

Within the BONE:

1. press Ctrl + ESC, then type "control". This will put you in the control panel.

2. double-click on the display icon.

3. Select "Calibrate color" icon located on the left side of the screen next to a blue and yellow shield icon.

This wizard provides a walk through to adjust the settings of your screen for the color and the brightness of your monitor setting.

The Wizard "calibrate color" is good to cross, but the area you want to adjust brightness would be the page titled 'adjust gamma. You can adjust the settings until the screen has the brightness that you prefer.

I hope this helps to solve the issue. If the problem persists, get back to us. We will be happy to help you.

Thank you.

  • Change color of Partition Image factory after that Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit upgrade

    I bought the package of Microsoft Family Pack Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit upgrade. I upgraded my HP Pavilion m9525f without problem. However, when I upgraded HP Pavilion Media Center m8547c PC my work wife I noticed that the partition image factory had changed from blue to red. His computer is now slower that it was running Windows Vista Home Premium 64-bit years she gets blockages requiring restarts.

    I have installed all the software HP upgrade to his computer and deleted all unnecessary programs, run the cleaning program in Accessories, defragmented the drive and ran sfc/scannow, who finds no problems with its operating system files.

    There is a serious problem, indicated by the change of color of partition to factory?

    Hello Archquark, you can delete the partition D: HP Recovery restore and recover this disk capacity.

    If you have the game to restore HP Recovery disk, which you should have done when you've got the system, you can still use them to restore the system back as it was when shipped from HP.

    I, personally, to remove these partitions recovery, because as you said, that they are usually outdated very soon after you get the system, but I wouldn't recommend others that under normal circumstances.

    I don't know why a temp. file was created in your D: Recovery partition.

    Windows 7 installation can be linked to the Vista install, and you will need to have Vista installed in order to perform the upgrade to Windows 7 If you have in the future.

    There are a few different methods that Microsoft and HP use to upgrade to Windows 7.

    I got a system until Windows 7 came out, but with a free Windows 7 upgrade when it was released. I got the Windows 7 upgrade disc and he ran like an upgrade. Later, I had to change the hard drive without an operating system installed and was able to perform a new installation with the provided HP Windows 7 upgrade disk.

    Appears to be a tossup. If you decide to delete the D: Recovery partition, you probably that in the Windows 7 Control Panel Setup, administrative tools, computer management, storage, management records.

    When you get there, just select the D: Recovery partition and select this option to delete the volume.

    Then select the C: partition and choose the volume and it should expand the C: partition to include the ability to partition D: previous.

  • Can I upgrade to windows vista home Premium 32 bit on 64-bit operating system

    Im running windows 7 Home premium on opus 64-bit system.  Can I upgrade to windows vista Home premium 32-bit...

    Hello

    This is not an upgrade from Windows 7 to Vista.

    It is a downgrade that Vista is the previous operating system before Windows 7 came out and you would have to BUY a COMPLETE of Vista version and do a fresh install of Vista; but before you buy Vista, check first that your computer manufacturer provides the Vista drivers for your model computer.

    Microsoft sells more Vista; Try Amazon.com.

I have the drive, but when I try to install the computer says that this version of windows is not compatible with it. How can I get my Windows Vista to install?
