Screen Brightness (how to make it lighter)
I was wondering as to how I can make my screen brighter when it's connected
to electricity. When I disconnect it and it's running on battery it makes a
BIG difference and I can actually see my screen... I've looked under power
properties, Control Panel, and Power Meter and I can't fix it... Please help
me!

I see Kelly gave a link. If its fruitless, I know my Dell has a setting
in the BIOS that controls how bright the screen is when either on
battery or on power. I found the battery brightness very dark, so I
made mine as bright as it is on power.
