This laptop screen problem was driving me nuts because the screen was so dim I could not use the computer in the daytime. I put out a cry for help on Escapees.com, an RV Forum I use all the time, and one of the regulars there made a suggestion that ultimately lead to my discovering the problem. It was a simple combination of Function keys that toggle the brightness! I don't know how it got changed but it did.
Now my new monitor can go into the storage bin to be used on one of the computers at home. I was planning on investing in one anyway and the price down here in Mexico was cheaper than I would have paid at home so all is well except we have lost some storage space. I will just have to drink a couple of dozen beer to clear some space. It is what you call a win - win situation.

I had the same problem with my wireless card "suddenly" not working. Was getting ready to take it in for repair when my son suggested I "turn" it back on by holding down the blue "fn" key and the key for the wirless card...amazing! It worked again!
