    Hi,
    I have problem with display on my notebook, because I can't adjust brightness (by function keys) of it. I know that this problem are doing Graphic drivers (I have latest from nVidia, and on netbook from samsung have same problem, but on netbook is not required to have latest drivers for best graphic performance), but what is strange and different from my netbook is that I can adjust brightness in some apps & games...example when is active QIP Infium or when I play Battlefield Bad Company 2, I still can adjust it...in Windows, Opera, and more and more other programs it's not possible. So why?

    It's running Windows 7 Ultimate and nVidia Geforce 330M.

    I have an R590 with the 330m and the brightness works fine on mine in games, the osd sometimes has a problem showing, but the screen brightness does change, though i dont play a lot of games myself.

    Do you have the Easy Display Manager installed if you do, it might be worth re-installing it.
