BRIGHTNESS CONTROLS DOESNT WORK

FN+Brightness buttons doesnt work.
It shows only that black overlay like Im changing brightness but it doesnt change. if i press - bright then it drops one bar but no change in brightness. also when i unplug my vaio it doesnt change darker (i've set level 5 from vaio power management when running on batteries)

- also my S2 button pops up the change button action dialog whatever ill configure S2 to do

Hi drayon,

Utils Installer 1 SonyUtils DLL
Utils Installer 2 Sony Shared Library
Utils Installer VAIO Event Service

Followed by a re-boot. You may need to repeat the procedure more than once….

still it shows only 1 bar removed when I -bright. the screen and nothing more ... like it freezes or smthng ... every other button works ... and FN also ... i may hold the FN+(-BRIGHT) button or click it twice but it just doesnt change and also the real brightness doesnt change ... does this need some other update aswell? or a specific nVidia display driver cuz i downloaded mine from www.laptopvideo2go.com ... the lates for nVidia GeForce GO 7600 (97.02) ?

Hi djrayon

If you revert to the original pre-installed Nvidia drivers do the function keys work as expected.. :thinking:
