Hi.

I've noticed that while running on battery only, the max setting for brightness is less bright than when running on AC (adapter).

Does anybody know if there is any way to override this and get max brightness even on battery?

Cheers,
Rick

It's a BIOS setting. Press F2 after power-on to get to the BIOS menu.

I know on my t42 there is also a setting in thinkpad configuration, lcd, "brightness when running on batterie".

You might want to try the settings that were changed here, in the thread about DVD playback....it might help.
