Using Power Options to Adjust the Brightness (Windows Vista)

To change the brightness using the Power Options utility, open the Control Panel and double-click on the Power Options icon. Select Adjust the display brightness in the left panel, then drag the brightness bars to the desired level. Note that the settings you make via this utility become permanent until you decide to change them again.

IF USING AC POWER, YOUR BRIGHTNESS SETTING IS SET TO ITS HIGHEST LEVEL BY DEFAULT. IF USING BATTERY POWER, YOUR BRIGHTNESS SETTINGS IS SET TO APPROXIMATELY MID-LEVEL BY DEFAULT.

THE HIGHER THE BRIGHTNESS LEVEL, THE MORE POWER THE NOTEBOOK WILL CONSUME AND THE FASTER YOUR BATTERIES WILL DISCHARGE. FOR MAXIMUM BATTERY LIFE, MAKE SURE THAT THE BRIGHTNESS IS SET AS LOW AS POSSIBLE.
