Default Re: Dell Inspiron 8600 laptop is too dark outside the house

Dell 8600? I have a 6000 and I you have to enter the BIOS on my machine to change that setting. I assumed it was the same for other models.

No. Not a Dell 8600. An older Dell 4150. But it works the same way on every Dell, Gateway, and Toshiba machine I have ever seen. You press (and hold) the "Fn" key in the lower left and then use the up/down arrows to change the brightness.

Looking online, the current models (6000 and 9300) both have the same controls...and the older ones I have worked with have them. I would be very surprised if this is not the exact way it works on the Dell 8600.
