Some 1400s needed a software fix for the backlight controls, brightness and
contrast. One of mine had similar problems: extremely dark screen, contrast
and brighter controls didn't work. It also came on for a few seconds at
normal brightness before blacking out.
The file is called PowerBook 1400
Hi,
My 1400 has started failing to light up the backlight on startup. At
first it would come on for a few seconds, then fail. Given a few
more boots it would come on. Now it seems to have given up the ghost
all together. Any suggestions?
Clae.
