Why Unable To Adjust Brightness After Updating HP Laptop From Windows 8.1
Aug 20, 2015Nov 27, 2015 Go to settings - display. Scroll down and move the brightness bar. If the brightness bar is missing, go to control panel, device manager, monitor, PNP monitor, driver tab and click enable. Then go back to settings - dispay and look for the brightness bar and adjust. Thanks for reaching out to us on HP Support Forums. ? I came across your post and would like to help. I understand that you have an HP Notebook - 14-r253tu. I read that the screen brightness can no longer be adjusted using the keyboard. May 17, 2010 The 'calibrate color' wizard is good to go through, but the area you would want to adjust for brightness would be the page titled 'adjust gamma'. You can adjust the settings until the screen has the brightness you would prefer. If you want to fine-tune the brightness instead of using 25% increments, right-click on the same brightness tile in the Action Center, click on the Go to Settings button and adjust brightness using the slider on the Display settings section that will show up (Windows Settings / System / Display).

Performance :: Unable To Adjust Brightness
Jan 22, 2016I have recently encountered weird problems with Windows 10, such as not being able to adjust the brightness (upon booting up, the brightness is either 0% or 100%), and sudden lag spikes that affect FPS by dropping it to 0 for 1-2 seconds, every 3 seconds. I have recently updated AMD Radeon drivers, and Windows 10 has also updated itself (which has always messed up everything) Also, now when the screen goes black (sleep mode), it always requires me to log in back to my Windows account, and it didn't do that before Windows updated itself.
The lag that I'm experiencing, is NOT connection-based lag, so my internet connection and everything works perfectly. It just the FPS that drops suddenly. It just freezes everything for a moment. It also doesn't require me playing a game or anything; just being on the desktop, having nothing open, will still make the lag spikes occur. My processor runs on the desktop around 8-24%, and when the lag spikes occur, it doesn't change at all. So nothing's draining the processor, I guess. Also the memory and all the others stay on the same level.I am using a HP Laptop that's not that efficient, but I have always been able to play games like Minecraft with decent settings on 60FPS.

Lenovo Y510p - Cannot Disable Adaptive Brightness After Windows Update
Jan 15, 2016Recently, my laptop has been unable to disable adaptive brightness. That is, brightness changing based on the color of what is displayed on screen. This happened after a windows update got stuck, then the laptop ran out of battery. The update has since been completed successfully.
To fix this, I have tried:
Changing setting in power options
Changing setting in Intel Graphics options
Various scripts for similar Lenovo laptops.
None of these have worked?

Drivers/Hardware :: Disable The Touchpad In Lenovo Laptop?
Sep 3, 2015In June a friend bought a Lenovo Z50-70 laptop running Win 8.1. He particularly dislikes touchpads so uses a mouse. In 8.1 I was able to disable the touchpad for him, via Device Manager. He's now updated to Win 10 and the touchpad has come back to life. I've been trying to disable it again, so far without success.
In 'Settings', the only option under touchpad is to alter the delay on using 'click'. I went to Control Panel.
In 'Device Manager > Mice and other pointing devices' there are only two options, 'HID-compliant mouse' (which has a disable option) and 'Lenovo Pointing Device', which I assume refers to the touch pad (is this assumption right?) and which can be uninstalled but has no 'disable' option.
In 'Device Manager > Human Interface Devices' amongst other things there are two entries both named 'HID-compliant vendor-defined device'. Both can potentially be disabled, but without further knowledge I'm disinclined to disable them in case I inadvertently disable the mouse in the process.

Lenovo Z575 Laptop - One Or More Network Protocols Missing
Jan 6, 2016I have a Lenovo Z575 laptop w/ Windows 10. I recently updated to Windows 10 a couple months ago and everything was fine up until recently. I've been having this issue the past couple of days where I try to load up a webpage, it states that connection has timed out, so I use the Troubleshoot Problems option for my wifi, and it gives me the statement 'One or more network protocols are missing'. I used the 'netsh int ip reset' command in the Command Prompt, and that seemed to work at first, but yesterday it happened again, only this time, it seems to pick and choose what pages load.

If you are having trouble adjusting the brightness or contrast of your laptop display, keep in mind that every model of laptop (and every operating system) is a little different. Common ways to adjust the brightness and contrast on a laptop computer are provided below.
TipSome of the options on this page work for adjusting brightness or contrast on a desktop computer as well.
Adjusting brightness using your laptop's keys
PC
On most laptops, you can adjust the brightness of the display using special keys on the keyboard. The keys are usually marked with the brightness symbol ().
Often, the brightness keys are function keys which have a special function if you press them while holding down the Fn key.
The Fn key is usually located to the left of your spacebar. The brightness function keys may be located at the top of your keyboard, or on your arrow keys.
For example, on the Dell XPS laptop keyboard (pictured below), hold the Fn key and press F11 or F12 to adjust the brightness of the screen.
Other laptops have keys dedicated entirely to brightness control. On the HP Chromebook keyboard (pictured below), there is no Fn key — press the brightness keys.
Chromebook
To change the brightness on a Chromebook, you'll need to push one of the two adjustment keys. The small gear lowers the brightness, and the large gear raises it. They are located at the top of the keyboard, as you can see in the red rectangle below.
Adjusting brightness in the operating system
You can also adjust your screen's brightness using software controls on your operating system:
Windows 10
In Windows 10, there are several ways to adjust the display brightness.
Using the taskbar's battery icon
- Click the battery icon on your taskbar.
- In the power status window, click the brightness tile. Each time you click the tile, your brightness will be adjusted by 25%.
Using the Windows Mobility Center
- Open the Power User Tasks Menu by right-clicking the Start menu icon, or by typing Win+X (hold down the Windows key and press X).
- Click Mobility Center (or press B).
- In the Mobility Center, adjust the brightness slider.
Using the Control Panel
- Open the Control Panel.
- Click Adjust commonly used mobility settings.
- In the Mobility Center window, adjust the brightness slider.
Adjusting brightness in Windows 8
- Open the Charms bar.
- Select the Settings charm.
- Select the brightness icon.
- Move the slider up and down with your mouse, or by pressing the up and down arrow keys on your keyboard.
Adjusting brightness in Windows 7
- Open the Control Panel.
- Select Hardware and Sound.
- Select Power Options.
- Use your mouse to move the brightness slider at the bottom of the window.
Adjusting brightness in macOS
- From the Apple Menu, choose System Preferences..
- Click Displays.
- Use the brightness slider to adjust brightness. If you want your brightness to change automatically based on the ambient light near your computer, check the box marked Automatically adjust brightness.
Adjusting brightness in Linux
Many window managers in Linux offer brightness controls in their settings panel. For instance, on Ubuntu systems with the Unity window manager:
- Click the icon at the right of the menu bar.
- Choose System Settings.
- Select Brightness & Lock.
- Adjust the brightness slider.
If your laptop uses Intel or NVidia graphics, you can also use a convenient command-line tool called xbacklight. It can be installed using most package managers. For instance, on Ubuntu or Debian systems:
To use xbacklight, specify the option -setpercentage, where percentage is a number from 0 to 100. For instance, to set brightness to half:
To set brightness to full:
Dell Laptop Can't Adjust Brightness
You can also increase or decrease the brightness by a percentage. To increase the brightness by 10%:
For a complete list of options, view the manual:
Adjusting contrast
Most laptops don't have contrast controls at the hardware level, but you can configure your operating system to use a high-contrast display mode.
Adjusting contrast in Windows 10
- Hold the Shift and Alt keys on the left side of the keyboard, and press the Print Screen key.
- Once asked if you want to turn on High Contrast mode. Click Yes.
To switch back to Normal Contrast mode, repeat step 1, and High Contrast mode will be canceled.
If pressing the key combination doesn't bring up the High Contrast prompt, you can enable it in the Ease of Access menu:
- Open the Control Panel.
- Click Ease of Access.
- Select Ease of Access Center.
- Choose Make the computer easier to see.
- Make sure that Turn on or off High Contrast when.. is checked.
- Click OK.
Adjusting contrast in Windows 8
- Open the Charms bar.
- Click Settings.
- Select Ease of Access.
- Under High Contrast, click the button to turn High Contrast mode on or off.
Adjusting contrast in Windows 7
- Open the Control Panel.
- In the search bar, type window color.
- Click Change window color and metrics.
- Under Basic and high-contrast themes, choose a high-contrast theme.
Adjusting contrast in macOS
- From the Apple Menu, choose System Preferences...
- Click Accessibility.
- Click the Increase Contrast checkbox, and use the Display contrast slider, to adjust your display.
Adjusting contrast in Linux
There are command line tools to adjust the contrast of your screen such as xgamma and xcalib. These can fine-tune any reductions in your screen's default contrast level.
To increase contrast above defaults, most window managers offer a high-contrast theme to make your screen easier to see. In Gnome-based window managers, such as Ubuntu Unity, follow these steps:
- Open a terminal window.
- Run the command gnome-control-center to launch the command center window.
- Click Universal Access.
- Turn on High Contrast.
Controlling screen brightness in your Power Options
After adjusting your laptop's brightness, it should retain the new settings automatically. If the brightness settings are not retained after a computer restart, they are probably being overridden by settings in the Power Options menu. If this is the case, you'll need to create a custom power plan, which can be done by accessing the Power Options utility in the Control Panel.
Driver issues
If the key combination method is not working and you've made the appropriate adjustments in Power Options, it is likely your computer has a video driver problem. Driver issues usually occur after updating the video drivers. Monitor drivers can also cause this problem. To resolve any potential monitor related issues, reinstall the monitor by following the steps below.
- Click the + or arrow next to Monitors to expand the list.
- Highlight any detected monitors under Monitors and press delete to remove them from the computer.
- Once the monitors are removed from Device Manager, under Action, click Scan for Hardware changes to let Windows re-detect the monitor and install the applicable drivers.
Can't Adjust Brightness On Lenovo Laptop
Finally, we also recommend downloading the latest video drivers directly from the video card manufacturer. If this problem was caused because you updated the drivers, install an earlier version of the video drivers to see if that resolves the issue.
Laptop brightness is still not enough or screen is black
If, after following the steps above your brightness is still not enough, plug your laptop into the wall. If the laptop is plugged in but still is not bright enough, try the suggestions on the page linked below. Filemaker pro mac torrent italiani.
