Windows 8: brightness of the screen changes (Satellite L855-11 t)

Hello

I own a satellite L855-11 t and installed Windows 8 Pro x 64 (full version DreamSpark). Everything works well except for one thing: I can't change the brightness of the screen.

I installed the new drivers and PVAT, system driver, etc. (even of csd.toshiba.com, because these are already for Windows 8). Toshiba function key does not work, do not know why. And Intel won't let me install the display driver: my system does not meet the requirements. I thought that there is a GPU integrated into Ivy Bridge?

Well, when I press FN + F2/F3 brightness indicator appears and changes its value, but nothing happens not on my screen. I just stay the same (which seems to be applied after a reboot). I disabled same Adaptive brightness, but it did not help. Any other function key work correctly (out of the box by the way).

I hope you can help me.

At present, it is not easy help with Win8 malfunctions. Until doesn t support official Win8 Toshiba we write just on good or bad luck.
In General, there are a lot of Toshiba tools and utilities that must work together. Yet he offered no tested versions.

Display drivers for mobile units are offered and tested by the manufacturers of portable so up to what Toshiba doesn t it I think that you should use your Win8 and learn how it works. In my opinion, the key is to check all the new features. All the specific stuff from Toshiba can be installed in addition.
Later, when Win8 support starts, you can install it again and just work well the OS, including specific functions of Toshiba.

  • Questions about the scale of the DPI and the brightness of the screen on Satellite L350-145

    I'm trying to customize a L350-145 (screen 17 ") to a user who has some problems of Visual discomfort (difficulty with bright screens and small print).

    (1) ease of access of Vista, control panel DPI scale offers two resolutions, 96, and 120. Even the 120 is a bit small for this user, so I put a custom DPI to 144 (150%). However, I anticipate that some applications could not deal with this font size, so I intend to create a second user that the user could switch to which still had the standard DPI setting. However, to try this I find that change the DPI for one user affect the users of the computer. The DPI is implemented by not part of the user profile?

    (2) I set the brightness level to 1 (through power settings). However, even if this is a little live sometimes. Is there another way to lower the brightness of the screen further away?

    Thank you

    2. do you can not go lower. I guess you could buy a filter sieve that filters glare.

  • How to change the brightness of the screen on Satellite A200 on Vista

    I have a problem with the brightness on my Satellite A200 - 14 d in vista, the default settings have very high brightness and when I change the brightness after a reboot there are default settings... (VGA is GeForce 7300 go)

    As far as I know there is nothing strange. The same thing was happening to me. If you want to have the brightness of the display on the lever of the lover all the time, it must be changed in power options. Please select your preferred profile (symmetric for example) and set the LCD brightness to the lower level.

    It works for me.

  • Satellite P855: cannot change the brightness of the screen under Linux

    Hello, guys... and girls :)...

    I bought my PC Toshiba laptop fourth - P855, there windows 7 pre-installed, but I'm a fan of Linux, so I installed Kubuntu 12.04 on it and have the dual boot menu at startup...

    And I have a very annoying problem - I can not change the brightness of the screen somehow, so keep it up... for the brightness function keys do not work, and the slider for brightness change anything...
    It works on windows, so I guess that's not the hardware problem...

    So, can you help me? ... I tried many things, tried different distributions also, but on none of them, I am able to change the brightness. And also - I tried the same distribution on the different laptops, and it works great, even from Live CD, no installation...

    I was able to change the brightness on previous phones I had... so why is this one so well done for Windows? ...

    > It works on windows, so I guess that's not the hardware problem.

    It's okay is not hardware problem, it looks like a bug in the Linux kernel or driver problem.

    Given that Linux is not officially supported on Toshiba laptops, I would recommend checking the support forum for the Linux distribution you use check also system Linux bugs for a possible solution on some linux support pages.

  • Windows 8 allow the change of brightness of the screen on Lenovo G585.

    I'm on WIndows 8, 64-bit, and I cannot adjust the brightness of the screen, regardless of the settings of power. I have an AMD Vision graphics card, but no matter what setting I try to change and what I'm trying to update (that I can't, because they are all fully updated,) drivers, I am stuck on the maximum brightness constantly. I hear a lot others have this problem on various laptops and even some desktop computers. Help, Microsoft!

    ~ DigiDuncan

    This old now so I guess that the problem has been corrected, but this just happened to me and I thought I'd share how I just fixed the issues. Go to system in Control Panel, on the right side of the screen, there should be a link to the Device Manager, after clicking this click on graphics cards, there will be another link (mine says) "Intel (r) Iris (TM) Graphics 1500" click on this and go to the pilot, go down to uninstall After uninstalling go through these steps again, but go down to update and then it should work fine.

  • Brightness of the screen Satellite A200 - 1 H 2

    Last week, I bought a new A200 with Vista on it. Under Vista, I use the Fn + F6/F7 shortcut keys to change the brightness of the screen, and one night, I put the brightness to the lowest. Then I restarted the system with a Windows XP installation cd, and the brightness stayed with the smaller settings.
    In Windows XP, I have install Toshiba Power Saver and I can adjust the brightness of the screen again, but I suspect that I can't do it as bright as before again.

    So my question is, don't the A200 screens have fixed brightness settings (1 to 8) or are they related?
    example, if you set the brightness to 1 using the hardware keys and you install a new OS, then the Toshiba Power Saver will recognize fixing 1-8, so in fact your new maximum brightness becomes 1. This would mean that the brightness is relative, or is that not the case?

    As far as I know the last option will be saved in the BIOS and after installing the new OS, the OS take this option in the BIOS. I noticed the same thing on my Satellite P200.

    I think the best option is to have BIOS updated to version 5. XX (version supported WXP) installed WXP, all the drivers, tools and utilities for you and everything will be OK.

  • Impossible to add an external monitor or adjust the brightness of the screen: Pavilion dv7-4031TX (Windows 7)

    Hello

    I recently replaced both hard drives of HDD2K12, which meant I had to re-enstall Windows 7. Since that time, I have no options more in using an external monitor or even the brightness of the screen. The computer does not recognize the monitor when I Plug and all my drivers are up to date.

    Can you make suggestions that could help to solve these two problems?

    Kind regards

    Peter

    Thanks to find the links but I could not find the drivers I need for a Pavilion dv7-4031TX.

    However I finally managed to fix the problem. Let me summarize what has been my problem.

    (1) I could not adjust the brightness of the screen by using the function keys f2 and f3.

    (2) I couldn't find the brightness slider if it was generally... i.e. (control Panel\Hardware and Options of Sound\Power)

    (3) my laptop would not recognize an external monitor.

    How I solved the problem:

    1 > pass.

    http://h10025.www1.HP.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=ob-95107-1 & CC = in the & DLC = in & LC = on & os = 4063 & Product = 4253423 & sw_lang =

    and go to the graphics driver and download the graphics driver and follow the directions. At the end of the installation you will be asked to restart the computer.

    0nce you have restarted your computer, you should be able to adjust the brightness of the screen using the fn keys or the brightness slider in the window 'power Option '.

    Now, right-click on it and select "update driver software... "then search automatically for updated drivers. Install the new drivers. You should see the generic 'PNP monitor' name change to another name.

  • Cannot adjust the brightness of the screen and the sleep will not work Satellite P750/P755

    On my P750/P755 Satellite I am unable to adjust the brightness of the screen.
    I can move the scale but nothing is happening on the screen.

    Also in the last two days not possible in mode "sleep" as it did before, even though I haven't changed anything.

    What did you do with your computer laptop last days?
    On this virtual path, it is not possible to say what the problem is here.
    You have installed updates? I mean all this can happen without reason?

    Have you tried to roll back the OS to an earlier time to check the functionality?
    And Yes, do you use the original pre-installed OS that you got with your laptop?

  • 100 s-11IBY computer laptop (ideapad) - cannot adjust the brightness of the screen - windows 10

    Hello my f11 and f12 keys is no longer adjust my brightness. The gauge up and down, but does not change the brightness. I tried to update the graphics card in Device Manager, but he says that it is up-to-date. Same thing with 'Generic PNP Monitor' said that it is up-to-date. I wiped the computer clean and 'reset' and reinstalled windows and it still does not allow me to adjust the brightness of the screen

    I'm not incredibly intuitive with computers, but I followed the instructions as much as I could find during my research online with nothing doesn't.

    Initially, the problem occurred when I used out of ignorance a program to install the drivers it says have been exceeded. After that, my audio stop working and my keyboard stop working entirely. After resetting the computer and windows resettled, the only question that remains is the brightness of the screen not being able to be adjusted.

    This drives me crazy, can anyone help me? I would be very happy! and please let me know if you need more information regarding my laptop. Thank you!!

    I thought about it. My drivers intel had to be installed since I reinstalled windows. I used the utility of intel and updated driver to update the graphics card update
