    press Fn and arrow key "right".
    thats the on/off button for keyboard backlit.
    fn arrow key up/down controls screen brightness.

    Click on the battery icon on the system tray and then select "mobility center" from the popup list, then when the window comes up click on the picture of the keyboard and it will let you tell it how long it waits before the backlight turns off
