So I recently bought a toshiba 775-S7320 I loved everything about it exept no backlit keyboard so i went on ebay and grabed this:
Put it in my laptop… everything works and my motherboard DID have the spot to plug in the backlight port, but i think i need some kind of drivers to run the backlit any help?
Turn on and start tapping the F2 button until you get to the BIOS screen
Scroll over to power management and change the setting for your backlit keyboard from off to on.
Press F10 to save and continue to start up.
Enjoy.
–REVISION: I am done “tweaking it” as I have found the answer and it was glaring me in the face. Instead of just turning it to the ON position through BIOS, turn it to TIMER. You can set the amount of time you want it to stay on when ever you press a key and the FN+Z shortcut works when this is set up so you can turn the keyboard on, off, or to follow the timer right from your desktop. I hope this helped.
Thanks for the quick answersm I checked bios there is nothing in there for keyboard or illumination. one other thing a google searched showed was looking in the utilities and turning it on. notheirng there.
