E4310 Backlight Keyboard

Good Morning/Afternoon,

I have recently purchased a second hand E4310 with 3gb of ram and an ssd. It also came with the backlit keyboard. Every time i use Fn+right arrow i see a box on the screen showing its either on, off or on ambient sensor. Im running win 10 pro. Everytime I open the laptop the backlight turns on momentarily on then off. I have tried the time out setting, I cant even get it turned on so I don't think that's the issue. I think I may be missing a driver. Anybody have a fix?

Hi Snotrap,

Please update the BIOS, chipset drivers to the latest available drivers from our support site.

Please click my DELL-username and send me a Private Message with the Dell Service Tag number and your email address, so that we can check on the system configuration as well.

Thank you for your message.


Uninstall Dell ControlPoint from control panel & reinstall from this link http://dell.to/2uDNm1n


Once reinstalled, from main DCP screen choose Display and Devices, then click Manage Display & Devices. This brings up the Display Manager window. Hover the mouse pointer over the Keyboard Backlight menu item.
