  1. My backlight on start up is not working properly


    I am having problems with my backlight not working properly, its been going on for a long while now, in fact I feel that it may have started when I first installed Windows 10 but cannot be sure about that. Sometimes I have to shut down or restart up to 20 times before the back light trips properly so that I can get the correct light. Can I please explain. So when the computer loads and the desktop arrives for a instant split second you get the full bright backlight which just flashes on and then in the next split second it has gone to a darker mode. Then occasionally in the next few seconds it will trigger back to the full light and then everything is OK, however more recently couple of weeks it is taking numerous start ups to achieve this and you are getting the darker screen each time on 9 out of 10 start ups, then finally on the 10th try it comes OK with a bright screen or how it should be. Are others experiencing this and can anyone help to rectify. Thank you. Bryan Y

    Can't find the setting to turn off keyboard backlight

    Sarah,

    • lacrumb is correct, keyboard backlighting is controlled by utilities put on your computer by the computer maker.
    • Keyboard backlighting only appears in Windows mobility centre if the computer maker has put it there.

    I suggest

    • Checking through your Start menu looking for a computer maker's utility,
    • Reading the computer manual,
    • Searching the computer maker's website
    • Searching any user forums for your computer model
    • Installing all hardware updates & BIOS updates provided on the computer maker's website
