    HOW CAN I SEE IF IN MY CF-28 IS PRESENT THE EMISSIVE POWE HARDWARE FOR KEYBOARD LIGHT BEFORE PURCHASING IT? I read A POST...... The emissive keyboard Khan only be used on 800 & 1000 MHzes machines, and it must have the emissive power board installed.

    REGARDS FROM ITALY

    is it Possible to install it if it is not present?? how does it call??
    I know the keyboard will work in all models, but I do not know if the backlight feature will.

    If you see a reflection from the hole just above the F4 key... You most likely have the sensor. (That is the sensor underneath the hole) You can also remove the plate on the bottom that is held down with 4 screws to see i you have the required circuit board. It should have 3-4 white boxes on the board and be roughly shaped like the state of Texas.

    Hope this helps...
