I have a WVGA 14" screen.
The screen is too dim for me. ... more dim when I run on battery.
What is the best adjustment for the screen?

Drop a email to james@famteam.com. He is a forum member here and does a great job of renewing ThinkPad screens. Reasonably priced, and prompt. I just had a old R50p screen done by him and it is tons better now.

Hold down the "Fn" key and press the "Home" key and see if tyhe screen brightens up.

you can set it to full brightness on battery in BIOS, preconfigured all Thinkpads dim down 20% on battery.

Go to "Display properties" and then "Advanced" to see if there are options to increase gamma, brightness and/or contrast.
