[SOLVED] Acer Aspire V5-431 fn key for Screen Brightness

Actually this is not a question. Just sharing my experience on this laptop under Windows 7 (x64) environment, eventhough VGA drivers seems to be already installed correctly.

For those experience Fn keys not working to vary screen brightness, the Fn keys actually working fine.

Open the Power Options, take a look at brightness slider at the lower side of the Power Options screen. Press the keys Fn+Left or Fn+Right, the slider moving along to the left / right direction as the Fn keys pressed. But the screen brightness is just freezing, no change.

This can be solved by uninstalling current VGA drivers first, then install the following driver.

Reboot the laptop, now screen brightness reacted correctly with Fn keys.
