How do I adjust my brightness or contrast on my
laptop?
Question:How do I adjust my brightness or contrast on my laptop?
Answer:Every laptop is different therefore adjusting the brightness or
contrast on your laptop may vary from the steps provided on this
page. However, understanding the method of how the brightness and/or
contrast are adjusted may help you adjust your
settings.
Most laptops today adjust their brightness, contrast, and other
video settings using the function key in conjunction with another
key. For example, pressing and holding the function key (usually
abbreviated as "FN") and press the up or down arrow
keys to increase and decrease the brightness. You can often distinguish what keys adjust brightness or contrast by looking for keys on the keyboard that have pictures of a sun or a half moon. 
Above is a picture of the FN key and the brightness keys on a laptop computer. Finally, laptops only enable users to only adjust the
brightness of their screen. Contrast settings are not available. Additional Information:
