I finally installed XP on my mac and it working correctly. But how do you adjust the brightness on XP? I know that there is an ATI icon in the taskbar but it is not senetve enough, it is either too bright or too dark. Is there a way to get around this?

Thanks

I assume this is on a notebook? If so, once you install the Bootcamp drivers on XP, you should be able to adjust the brightness using Fn-F1/F2.

Liquid and computers don't mix. It might seem simple, but we see an incredible amount of people post here about spills. Keep drinks and other liquids away from your expensive electronics!

Solution: (Vista Ultimate)
Start >> Control Panel >> (Classic View) >> Boot Camp >> Brightness (Tab) >> (adjust dim to bright)

Good luck.
