Q. I recently did a clean install of Windows 7 on my Dell laptop. I love the fresh and clean feel, but I can’t find where to adjust the duration on my keyboard backlight. Can you help?!

A. Sure! Backlit keyboards are one of my favorite options on Dell laptops. My previous Dell M4400 had a nice one and now my Dell M6500 (pictured has one too). I will hardly purchase a laptop unless it has a backlit keyboard, they are SO nice for night time or other low-light environments.
But, back to your question! You simply need to install the “Dell System Manager” portion of the Dell “Control Point” driver download.
Download links:
Here is the Dell download link, once the page loads expand the “ControlPoint” listing and then look for the “ControlPoint System Manager” driver download.
By default the driver will expand to:
C:delldriversR279622
Again, here is the OFFICIAL Dell Download Link (support.dell.com)
Sometimes Dell changes their download locations, so here is a local mirror for your convenience:
