    Howdy folks,
    I recently did a fresh install of Win7 to my X460 and while the keyboard works, I've lost the [Fn] key functions that adjusts brightness, sound, etc.

    Also, when I unplug the power cord the screen dims and there doesn't seem to be any options to adjust the brightness.

    Does anyone have any experience with this issue?

    Thanks,
    O2bwln
