Hi,

my laptop faces a problem I have not encountered elsewhere. My screen brightness does change. In terms of pressing the screen brightness keys, the computer thinks it is changing the settings: for my keyboard you hold Fn and hit either down or up. Upon pressing those keys, the screen brings up the brightness changer; however, the brightness itself doesn't change. I have no idea what the problem could be; however, I think it may be hardware. I didn't actually buy the computer from Dell so using their help services is not an option. Please help!
