Hi

I just formatted my hard drive and reinstalled Windows XP on my Sony
TR3A VAIO. I also installed drivers that seemed appropriate from the
Sony Support website.

Now I can't get the brightness to adjust. It used to adjust when I
hit Fn - F5 and I could adjust the brighness up and down with the
arrow keys. Now when I am on batteries the screen is so dim as to be
nearly useless.

When I am on AC power the screen is stuck on maximum brightness but I
guess I can live with that

Sony Tech support says I need some software that is not posted on the
website. They say I should have backed up the drivers but thats too
late to do. Sony sells disks with the software I need but the disk
for my TR3A is out of stock with no date available when it will be
in.

I also don't have the software to for the built in video camera but
thats not really a big deal but I would like to do video calls with
Skype.

Hope somebody can help.
