    Hi All

    I received my p151sm1 yesterday and i powered it up and installed windows 7 64bit. Everything went well untill i wanted to lower my brightness.... i installed the hot key drivers and that didnt work. I uninstalled and reinstall and that didnt work out to well. I also updated my windows. I went to the power option and i didnt find a bar where i could slide to decrease the brightness.OH! and i also did a keyboard check to see if the keys were actually working am about to install my nvidia drives. Could someone give me some advice or something? thanks you for your time :)

    If there are any problems with the display outputs or internal panel since the intel chip controls all of that in an optimus system it is always a good place to start :)

    Don't worry, those get overlooked quite a bit. ;)
