    The system default setting of the adjust plan brightness is DC 40% and AC 100%,
    now when unplug it 40% on DC mode, then plug in AC, found LCD brightness have not change to 100%, still keep with 40%. Reboot one unit with 3 cycles on DC mode; also duplicate this phenomenon after plug in AC adapter.

    (the default brightness on AC always change from 100% to 40% ) any one face this problem ??

    Have you tried saving the settings in Vaio Control Center in the control panel?

    Ok, have you tried updating the Sony Notebook apps, or just re-installing them. Those are the source of the computer not saving your changes to the power plans.
