Has anyone figured out how to correct the mistake made by HP by putting silver keys on a laptop ( Pavillion) and a white backlit keyboard.  I need the backlit keyboard, but I cannot read the keys since they are now white on a silver background.  Which idiot did this anyway??  Didn't anyone check before production?

I'm seriously thinking of heading to the office supply store to find stick-on alphabet letters but that defeat the backlit KB?

Now what?

There are many posts around this not too smart design. Not just HP, other vendors do the same. 99% of my time I use external keyboards therefore with me no problem. 

 

Which idiot did this anyway? Well, many users say the same and they did not learn after 4 or 5 years. Well, we have to check before buy then.

 

Please try the following sulution
