Dell Studio 17 1749 keyboard backlight

Hi there, does anyone know how I get the keyboard backlight to work?

Thank you!

don't know much about keyboards, but there's only the blue fn elsewhere from f1-f12 - nothing else blue on the keys..?

Next question would be, "are you sure you purchased the backlit keyboard option"?  It's not standard.

No, it isn't standard - it is an at-purchase optional upgrade.

I think it's FN + F6..

Btw do you know if a backlit keyboard would work on a laptop that doesn't have a back lit keyboard??

As long as the system in question has a backlit-keyboard option, yes - it will work.
