    Just a little preface...

    I'm running Win 7 64 bit RC, on a Dell S1555 notebook, with an ATI 4570.

    Anyway, in Vista, under the power plan settings, I could set a display brightness for when the system is on battery, and when the system is plugged in, for example in my balanced plan, it is set to 30% on battery, %60 when plugged in.

    Is there anyway to do this in Win 7?

    I use RMClock to do it.
