HP 2 000 keyboard backlighting?

I just got a HP 2 000 (at least, I think it's the name of the template) for Christmas and I got most of the things on my own, but I can't seem to find an option to "backlight" for the keyboard. I type in the dark and I know I should know the keyboard layout but it's kind of different workstations, so it makes it very frustrating when you try to enter passwords and other.

MY QUESTION IS: Is there an option in the settins where I can activate the backlight or I have to buy separate hardware? If so, this is how much and how much would it cost to service? Thank you

Hello

HP2000 is a series of many models, what is yours? To turn the keyboard backlight (or back-lit) or off, use one of the following methods depending on your model.

  • Hold down the fn key and press the space bar.
  • Press the F5 key.
  • On some models, the backlight key is f12.

If none of these works, which means that your machine lacks a backlit keyboard and if you need it, you would have to buy 2 things:

b a systemboard or motherboard that has support for "lights," ZIF

(b) the keyboard itself.

Kind regards.

    Hello

    I have this model u500-1fn without keyboard backlight...
    If I buy a keyboard backlight for u500 will work?

    Hmm, the laptop must support the backlight for the keyboard if you want to use this keyboard.
    Under the keyboard there should be a slot in order to attach the cable from the keyboard backlight.
    If it is available then you should be able to use this theory

  • Keyboard backlight vpcs131fm

    How can I manually turn on the keyboard backlight? It does not automatically lights up until the bathroom is almost completely black. There are many low-light situations where it would be nice to have the backlight on, but it's not dark enough so that it turns on automatically.

    Once again, thank you very much Jim. I made the change to "40" and now the backlight works much better. I can even experiment with this definition a little more now. At least it works!
    I really appreciate your time and your help. I even took it to the "geek squad" and told me it was impossible.
