I can modify the brightness there, but that is more the brightness of what is on the screen, not the screen itself.. if I change the brightness there everything becomes very dark or overexposed.

I will be doing later on. I'll let you know if there is any change.

I've also installed Dell QuickSet which was not previously installed, which has given me some power management options including...

I've installed an older version of the graphics driver with no difference made, problem is with not being able to reboot I can't see if these changes are making a difference. Having said that, the...

Well considering the case was too smashed to be properly utilised I would imagine that the force of the drop will have caused some damage..

I'll keep trying various things and let you know what...

Thanks for the replies both,

For years I've been irritated by one small issue with Windows, and that is window...

Would be good to know how you got on.

Have you any other drive available other than the SSD to swap it with?
