    I was on the plane, so I couldn't have the power supply plugged in so the screen was alot darker. I went to power management, nothing was there.

    I was hoping I could have the same brightness without the power supply plugged in... I have Windows XP Media Center edition... and I have not reformated the laptop since I got it... any help would be great, thanks!

    I think you'll find this in the BIOS [F2 key during boot]

    Fn + Up/Down arrow.

    BIOS or Quickset to make it automatic
