banesTA,
Backlit Keyboard
The Vostro 3550 system is offered with a backlit keyboard at Point of Sale.The keyboard on the Vostro 3550 illuminates when the system is turned on. There are 3 settings – Brighter, dimmer or turned off. This can be done through the BIOS or by pressingandkeystroke.
The key that represents a keyboard with back lit capable looks like a rectangle with 5 dots above it.
Thank You,
