I recently got my laptop (3 months ago) and I noticed that there is a problem with the screen's backlight. Whenever I turn on my computer the screen's brightness level goes all the way down. This also happens after I unplug my computer from it's charger. I tried a windows restore and it didn't help. I've also looked in the control panel for a way to fix this minor problem, but I couldn't find a solution. When I originally bought this laptop, it didn't have this problem. It started about 1 month after purchasing it. What can I do to adjust the setting???

First I would uninstall any software you have installed in the last 3 months and see if the problem goes away.
if it was a mac I'd say reset the pram (hold command+option+p+r during startup).
if it's only 3 months old I would call the manufacturer.

Hi. Virtually all laptops have a setting that reduces the back light to save power. I would leave it alone because battery life will be improved. There are settings to keep this light bright but your time will be greatly reduced. (Usually the Fn key and the brightness key.)

The LCD display may be going bad, contact the manufacturer. From http://fixit.in
