Not bad. You've still got a little over a week to come up with a
better entry into the "Dumbest Question of the Year" contest, but I
think you might have a winner with this one.

Yes try to go to your FN keys(blue keys) and find brightness
It is not a dumb question, It's not like what I'm asking about is common
sense/knowledge, how else am I supposed to know unless I ask someone?

Blue keys? What's that? I've never heard of them before.

This question has to do with your hardware, not the OS or any other
software. You should look in the documentation that came with your
machine (on my laptop there's a user's guide on the disk, with a
shortcut to it on the desktop). That will show you where the
brightness control is.

It's not a dumb question at all. Uncle Grumpy is just our resident
grouch here. He's almost always rude, never any help to anyone, and I
suggest killfiling him, as I've done.
However, it's not a Windows question. How to do this is a hardware
function, and depends on your particular laptop. Check your laptop's
documentation, or contact the manufacturer.

Yes it was. TOTALLY AND COMPLETELY DUMB.
Posted to the wrong newsgroup, didn't include info on his equipment,
and showed that he'd obviously not even looked at the manual for
whatever computer he owns.
Idiots NEED to be told that they're idiots. Some of them might change
their ways.
Those that don't are idiots - MORONS - that are beyond help.
You're an idiot. I hope you change your ways.
