    command to run Fn + [left arrow]

    I look to find some simple solution to execute Fn+left arrow once at winxp startup... It might be some simple specific command aplication, or batch script, or some C code (I have C compiler, but thats it)... can anyone help with idea or solution? On internet can find some sofisticated programs that can do such things and much more, but I not interested to load it to system for that.... ... ... If you interested in what is purpose... I have some bug or so on my laptop, and on every shutdown reset backlight to maximum, just flash one moment before go off... on next boot backlights is stuck to fully on, but only one pressed fn+larrow bring it back to previous setted value.

      It is eMachine G725, and something is wierd with screen by design: on point of boot manager like grub the fn key work ok, and can be set brightness... depending on os can be either: stay at this setting, or go to max brightness. I managed to fix brightness in some linux config file, and fn key was start working in winxp after install graphics driver... but issue is that value is disrupt on shutdown... on linux it load config file while boot, and it is fixed, but on winxp on every poweron is max brightness any ask to hit fn+arrow. Here on forum I posted solution for linux. For winxp is half ok with driver... I dont see any slidebar to adjust brightness, just working with fn+arr key... It is not big deal just some iritant thing that reduce my confort...

        Denon AVR 1908, High pitch noise on Surround back Left channel after long overhaul
        by karatzdi
        Hello,

        I know some might say... just buy another one. Sell it as parts..!

        So had this AMP for quite some time. Recently I saw light smoke coming out of the AMP. Had my fire extinguisher close by. Just kidding. Turned immediately all devices off from mains.
        Let things cool a bit, and opened up the amp device. I clearly saw on the main board which hosts the 5X amp (5.1), 3 10 ohms 1W resistors had their leads looking black, while the rest of the remaining 2 x 10 ohms were brownish as being installed from factory.

        Spent some time downloading the Service...

        Vizio M60-C3 Left Edge problem
        by Pinky Deepak
        I have a M60-C3 where the left edge has started showing issues as seen in the picture attached. Along with this, I also noticed some darkening on the left half of the screen which went away after I left the TV unplugged. i initially thought it was the led backlight that was wearing out but looks like something to do w the TCONN board. I searched this forum but couldn't find anyone else seeing this issue. most of them were LH/RH completely gone. any insights or guidance is appreciated.

        Here's a video of both the issues: https://youtu.be/hMqc760nB3o

        Panasonic Tx-40cx400b top left half screen not displaying correct
        by armoured_smiler
        Hi,

        Trying to work out if this is TFT problem or TCon issue.
        The TV powers up but the top half of the screen, from the right it is OK, but as you look across to the left halfway across it starts get duller and duller until it is very dark on the lefthand side, currently I trying to clean the remote as it seems to have something film wise on the pads stopping it from registering buttons pressed.

        Also when changing the screen size of Windows PC display to say to a smaller pixel sizewindow, the original window displayin the top left stays/takes a few seconds to disappear?...

        HH Scott Model A510 Stereo Integrated Amplifier/ Graphic EQ - Blowing fuses in the LEFT speaker channel only. Any Help???
        by Sik_6ty_Sixx
        So like the title says, I have an old Stereo Receiver/Amplifier that I picked up from the goodwill, it's a HH Scott Model A510. When I first got it home it had zero output. Opened it up, notice the fuses are missing. Pop in 2 new fuses (AGC4A 250V) and try again, within 5 seconds the L channel fuse POP! I don't see any visible indications of damage or arc burns on the PCB, no popped resistors or diodes, no burnt traces or blown out caps. So I decide to just try another new fuse, POP. Swapped around my R and L speaker wires, and checked the integrity of all wires and connections. Everything looks...

        Panasonic Plasma screen interference on left half of screen
        by Zelek11
        My Panasonic Plasma model P55VT50 has started displaying "interference" on just the left half of the screen only (left when facing the screen). Sometimes it's concentrated in about the first 30 seconds after startup, then disappears. Other times it's fine at startup and then randomly does it later on. When it flashes the interference it's very quick and doesn't stay on the screen unless it flashes repeatedly in a row.



        This image is a screen shot from a video I took. This is an example of the interference at its worst. Often the interference is much smaller...
