    Hey all,

    I started experiencing the common youtube-crashing bug and during one BSOD my os files were corrupted so I had to reinstall windows. After reading up on the problem, I installed the leshcat drivers. Now youtube works fine, but the fn brightness keys do not function at all and when I wake my laptop up from sleep the display remains dim. Any advice?

    Did you re-install all the drivers?

    Don't use leshcat. Use the 8.940 because it is more compatible than the leshcat.

    Well he saying his functions are not working that means he either didn't install your driver correctly back when you reformatted. Lescat is stable sometimes, but I would recommend 8.940 though.

    I have no Youtube problems with 8.940, and it was an official Samsung release so should have less issues than Leshcat's.
