NB100 - how to adjust the brightness of the screen?

Hi all.

You just bought a NB100 - overall very very happy with it. Well built, good screen and very compact, etc.

You have some questions? The brightness of the screen is controlled by the Fn + F9/F10. I love that she's set on ' to Midway ' or less - in part to preserve the battery - but also because I find max brightness is actually TOO bright for me! But the reboot of the machine always seems to start up. Is there a way around this? There may be a firmware update (my machine seems to run version 1.90 which I believe is the most recent)?

I noticed other referring Fn + F8 discussions as a way to select Bluetooth/WiFi etc.? Mine seems to just control the setting of the fan and processor - fan speed "gray" setting gives clocked at 1.6 ghz and fan lights - while Fn + F8 activates / deactivates an icon fan 'white' - where the processor strangling up to 800/900 ish and the slows / stops (?) fan. [by the way I noticed some videos become "jerky" If you choose the lower setting]

I'm not 100% sure what Fn key + "pipe" (to the left of the formula 1)? The Fn + F1 turns on without wireless/wifi I know - but the key of "pipe" seems to be a symbol of Wlan (or is it the key to use for Bluetooth or GPS or other)? Sorry to sound so ignorant - but the user guide does not in this detail. I'm pretty sure that the machine, I have bought - that was one handed to new/refurbished Toshiba NB100 - model PLL10E - did not all BT/GPS etc - just the basic wifi which F1 comes on and goes off.

Last comment - and others have said - the main peaks are very difficult to see in the dark! The 'gray' color was definitely a design error! But I can live with that - either a usb light? or a few letters of stickon (white)?

Greetings to all.

Hi, I think the best way to adjust the brightness is in the options of the properties of the energy available in the system tray icon. I don't know about the activation of bt and wlan, it seems that bt and WiFi devices are on the same circuit power, so not adjustable. Nb100 is a good inexspansive machine :)

  • How to adjust the brightness of a video clip?

    Hello

    Using the latest iOS on iPhone6s with the latest version of iMovie.

    I could not find how to adjust the brightness of a video I import to iMovie, it is quite dark and I want to increase the brightness or exposure.

    Thank you

    Greetings aytekdorken,

    Thank you for using communities Support from Apple!

    I understand that you want to adjust the brightness of a clip in iMovie for iOS. You cannot adjust the brightness directly, but you can add a filter to a clip or project that could potentially illuminate it for you.

    The brightness of the screen is normally something on your
    Monitor itself, not Windows. See the documentation of your
    instructor about how to proceed.

  • I work on a laptop running XP and I can't find how to adjust the brightness of the screen

    original title: screen brightness
    I work on a laptop running XP and I can't find how to adjust the brightness of the screen. He is not bright enough for the environment, in that I am currently working.
    Any help?

    Look in the BIOS (nothing to do with the operating system) and change first there - so it's also brilliant to (on battery vs. connected to power - these settings, you determine thus.)

    In Windows - you should be able to control the brightness * if * you have everything installed the appropriate drivers for your laptop * and * they chose to give you these controls (the true drivers/software from the video card manufacturer is usually done).

    Also - if the brightness is not sufficient because of the light of the Sun - then by adjusting it can't helped.  Not many mobile consumers have a screen that can be read in the light of the Sun.  There are laptops with special screens for this type of environment.  Crank your brightness might help - but if you do not have an anti-glare screen, etc...

    Original title - Windows 8

    My daughter recently bought a new laptop (HP 6730 s) and bought and has Windows 8 installed on it.  She doesn't know how to adjust the brightness of the screen.

    That's what she said "how to adjust the brightness of the screen on a laptop HP 6730 s running Windows 8? The internet is not give me answers. There is no "graphics properties" option when I click right on the desktop, nor is it a brightness slider when I go into the truly enigmatic Control Panel. ".
    I tried searching via the Microsoft website for an answer.  The only answer is for Windows 8.1 - she tried the steps to adjust brightness as given for Windows 8.1 However, it does not work for Windows 8.
    Could you please help and let me know how to get to the setting of the brightness, on his laptop screen, for Windows 8.
    Thank you in advance.

    If it is possible to do, it's a feature of his laptop, not of

    I have a type of laptop Toshiba 1900-101 and have been very satisfied since I bought it 3 years ago.
    One thing I fear is, that I could 'break' the socket plastic of the screen, since I have to use force to open / close.

  • How to adjust the video memory on Satellite A100-811

    Hi all

    There, an agency know how to adjust the memory of the video card in the laptop Toshiba Satellite A100-811?
    The physical memory of my laptop is 512 MB, I want to share my 128 MB videocard, nomatter if 384 will remain in my physical memory.

    Your immediate response is much appreciated.

    Thanks in advance
    Jilvir

    Hello

    the Satellite A100 supports an Intel 945GM processor 8MB - 128 MB of graphics memory shared memory, it's true. But
    as far as I know it of not possible to allocate this memory shared manually, it happens automatically.

    If the application running more graphic must map memory then the OS will be automatically increases this value.

    It seems that this laptop came with 512 MB of memory. In my opinion you must upgrade the memory of 1024MB if you want to use the full 128 MB shared memory.
