Display problems using laptop outside...

Hi,

Wonder if anyone can help me! I have a Dell Inspiron 1300 laptop, we have wireless internet and I'm wondering how I go about amending the screen brightness so that I can use it outside. Means I can 'supervise' the children outside, whilst still keeping in touch on MSE - plus actually doing some work too!

I'm not very techie minded - but if anyone knows how to do this then I would be really grateful.

Thanks
FF

    How stupid do I feel now! I always wondered what that 'wheel' symbol was!

    Duly done - and screen much better now...

    Thanks! :beer:
