    How to turn off backlit keyboard and adjust the level of the backlit. I came across some youtube before that you have 3 options. 1 Turn off, 2 turn on with light level 1, 3 lighter than option 2....I found the button next to F5 but when I press it , nothing happen...and when I leave my laptop idle, the backlit heyboard will automatic cally turn off. then I press F6 and the backlit is on. I press again...nothing happen. Please help.
