| 233838 | 2004-05-03 05:41:00 | I have the use of a Toshiba notebook - the screen is as dark as, so that icons and all are hard to read. Changing display settings doesn't make much difference - any pointers, out there? | ausgang (5603) | ||
| 233839 | 2004-05-04 03:03:00 | Have a look at the tops of the keys for extra functions (often green print). There may be an extra "Fn" key which enables things like brightnes up/down,contrast up/down, external/internal monitor. | Graham L (2) | ||

If it is the backlight which is faulty you need to be very confident of your ability to work with delicate bits of plastic before attempting to change the tube! |

| 233842 | 2004-05-16 21:55:00 | Thanks for your replies - turned out to be a dead back-light. The expense alone, to say nothing of the fiddly job, made it uneconomical to repair. |
