Hi:

 

Can you adjust the brightness level using the slider bars in the Windows control panel, or is the brightness stuck on maximum no matter what?

 

If you can adjust the brightness using the sliders in the Windows control panel, see if installing this software allows you to adjust the brightness using the Fn keys...

 

This package contains the HP System Event Utility, which enables special function keys on supported notebook models to be programmed. For example, HP System Event Utility enables users to press the Fn+ESC keys to view system information. This software works with the supported operating systems.

If the brightness is stuck on maximum then install these drivers...

 

First install the Intel graphics driver and restart the PC.

Then install the Nvidia graphics driver and restart the PC.
