    I can't seem to adjust the screen brightness! Like, at all! When I unplug the laptop, brightness goes to lowest, and when I replug it, it remains that way! Pressing the brightness keys (using FN and not) won't do anything! The other function keys do work, such as backlit keyboard on/off. And there is no brightness setting in the power options. What gives? I have a hunch that it could be a driver issue. The question is, which one? 'Cause I've re-installed just about all of them.

    Any help would be truly appreciated. Thanks!
