T500 screen brightness does not

Have T500 type 2083 a15 W7 32-bit Professional (machine renovated)

Cannot adjust the brightness of the screen

The brightness with the fn and Home/End setting has the display of brightness bar, but it does not change the brightness when its has changed - the bar displays being changed levels but does not change in brightness.

In addition, when trying to find the brightness setting via the Windows Control Panel and then display settings, brightness adjustment is not availible.

I down loaded and installed all the current updates recommended

Any help would be appreciated.

Problem Solvod!

Used sytem Lenevo program update (in the list of programs) and there are an update of the Bios - apparently not in systems update if you go through the website and search for updates it.

Brightness option now appears in the settings of the power and control Fn Home/End now works.

ALTI - Thank you for questioning BIOS - made me try other means to update.

    The display brightness can be changed in the power manager, or the top menu system. In the power manager, the cursor can be moved, but the brightness is not set. Toshiba menu system appears to hang on trying to change the brightness with F6 - F7 and won't move the cursor.

    Hello

    Some questions; Why you have updated the BIOS?
    Are you sure you used the right BIOS?

    In my opinion you shouldn't t to update anything if the laptop works properly!

    However, try to access the BIOS, set the default settings and save the settings before exiting the BIOS.
    If this does not help, I would pick up the laptop with the Toshiba Recovery CD.

    Good bye

  • L420 screen brightness does not change with the function keys

    I installed the last dryers and since then I am unable to change the brightness of the display using the function keys. I installed several driver updates from where it is difficult to know which driver is causing the problem. The pointers in this area would be a good help.

    The latest driver Intel HD (from Intel) is originally this issue. Uninstall and reinstall the driver provided by Lenovo.

    I came across your post about the brightness of the display and wanted to help!

    Try searching for the Device Manager in the Start Menu.  Then expand the monitors section and see if you have an option for Generic PnP monitor.  If so, do a right-click on him and generic PnP monitor enable, if not already.  Now, check to see if you can adjust the brightness.  If you're still having problems, then try to see the following resource and let me know how it goes:

  • Portege M400: screen saver does not work

    Hi all

    like many of you, I think, I need the screen saver protected by start-up automatically when I let my M400 unattended for some time.
    Everything works fine if the bluetooth is introduced to the wide. Otherwise... the screen saver does not start automatically.

    Site Microsoft learns something about the problems related to (Microsoft mouse) wireless devices that do not allow the screen saver appears.
    The proposed solution is to kill a process called PCMsomething, or download an update windows named KBsomething and install it.

    I actually a bluetooth wireless (non-Microsoft) combined with my PC mouse, but no PCMsomething process is executed and, although my mouse is turned off, the screen saver organizers can't work until I turned off the bluetooth of the M400 too. In addition, windows update does not suggest a KBsomething patch to install (maybe because my mouse is not a Microsoft one?).

    Any idea to solve my problem?
    Thanks in advance.

    For this application, Toshiba has designed the FN + F1 feature to lock your laptop.
    When you want to leave your laptop using FN + F1 and lock it.

    It is a lot easier than this solution with screen saver.

    My Qosmio F20 screen saver does not start even after reaching the specified minutes 'wait '. I tried several ways to fix it, but to no avail. I really want the screen saver to appear.

    Hello

    Well, usually the common screensaver that are pre-installed on the operating system to work properly. I put t know what screensaver you use, but I guess that you have installed a 3rd party screensaver. In this case you should check these settings. For the most part a screensaver 3rd party has a parameters.

  • X120e Funtion keys brightness does not?

    I just got the x120e and I have been through the fixed auto-éclaircissant himself. After that, I hit the Fn + Home and adjusted to my preference. He was not on the charger when I did so I was in a dark room I had the brightness down. Later in the day, I plugged it in to charge and I went to make it brighter. The brightness does not change however. All other agents Fn + F keys work. But not both for brightness. The strange thing is, I shut down the computer, whereas standby mode, then opens it again and it was really brilliant and I had to almost squint, but once again the keys did not work to lower it. I closed it and opened it and it is even lower. The keys still don't work. Any suggestions?

    Check what is running in the background - use the Task Manager first.
    The screen saver while using more than about 5% of the processor will prevent activation

    My screen saver does not work all the time.  First time I have turn on computer, it works OK.  Later in the day, this isn't.  Usually, this seems to happen once the aircraft stopped in the energy saving mode.  After the reactivation of the computer (do not), the screen saver does not work when it should. How to run all the time?  I am running Kapersky Internet Security 2011.  This would be closed by the screen saver?

    Hi garybuyit,

    Thanks for posting your question in the Microsoft answers Forums.

    Just so I'm clear, updated you the graphics cards in Device Manager? You have access to a Windows XP installation disc. If so, follow the steps in this document to make a scan of the SFC. This analysis will attempt to repair or replace any missing or corrupted system files.

    I downloaded the driver appropriate on the acer site and installed.  Also, I tried to reduce my resolution.  None of them have worked.  I get a message on the acer monitor that says "Input not supported"

    You check the display settings and make sure that you do not have your resolution to high for this monitor. Its got to many many times.

    Hello jerrylumpe

    1. If you use an old mouse, try to clean it.

    2. you can have a running process in the background that keeps XP thinking that he is busy and so the screen standby does not start.
    Go to msconfig and uncheck everything you don't need, then see if the screensaver will kick in.

    Start/run and type
    Msconfig
    Ok

    Startup tab
    Keep the page open then click on the link below. It will tell you what are all the entries and see if you can disable them or not

    http://www.SysInfo.org/STARTUPINFO.html

    Read the key at the foot of the page, then click on "Here" at the top. Use the search box to check all your entries

    Try this too
    http://www.kellys-Korner-XP.com/xp_tweaks.htm

    Line 51 left side. Click on "toggle".

    It could be that something is resetting the timer. For example, it does take much vibration to move the mouse a little, and which will reset the timer to zero. Something like that would be possible? Or a pet that walks on the keyboard?

  • Screen saver does not always work

    My screen saver works sometimes and sometimes not.  What can be the problem?

    Hi RandyGarner,

    1. did you of recent changes on the computer?

    2 when was the last time it was working fine?

    3. the problem occurs with all the screensavers on the computer?

    4. you receive an error message when the screen saver does not work?

    Method 1

    I suggest that you change desktop theme and then check if the screen saver works.

    Change desktop theme

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/change-desktop-theme

    Method 2

    If the previous step fails, then I suggest that you install the updated drivers for the graphics card on the computer by visiting the card manufacturer's Web site and check if it helps.
