Power plan - do not keep settings!
Hi,
I'm running Win7Pro 64bit in a Tecra R840 laptop. My power planning regarding LCD brightness is 40% if running on batery and 100% if plugged in. The problem is that, for some reason, I can't keep these settings and Windows (?) change it to 40% on batery and plugged in. Example: I change settings to 100% if plugged in (and my laptop is plugged in). The brightnes is at 100%. Then I shut down and start with batery. Brightness is 40%. Everything ok until now...but if I plugged in again the brightness will stay at 40% and if I go to power options I can see that the plugged in option changed to 40%!!!! Any help will be appreciated. Regards, paulo |

Do you click Save Settings after changing them?
If you run HD Tune it will mess with power settings. |

If you do the save power settings and reboot with it on outlet power the whole time, is it at 100%?
Just wondering if you are going to outlet power while it is still on, via battery, and at 40% setting, and that is causing it to lock 40% for both somehow. Is that laptop running any brand specific software at bootup? Run msconfig.exe from search box and go to the Startup tab for the list of items. |

Yes and no! If I reboot with the outlet power the brightness will remain at 100% sometimes...! Sometimes it will be at 40% brightness.
Yes it runs flashcards from toshiba. cheers, paulo |
