    Is the problem that you cant disable/ enable backlight or adjust the brightness? If it's about adjusting the brightness, the solution may be to uninstall the Hotkey- program. I had the problem of not being able to adjust brightness and or the hotkey would adjust it over my settings in windows and in the hotkey- program. Same problem with Win7/8 and 8.1 . Hotkey- program is still somewhat problematic for me so I don't use it.

    it's about adjusting the brightness

    Clevo just sent me new bios...looks like they knew about this problem...
    for the moment I'm don't know it is safe just flash new bios over Prema Bios??
