Inspiron 700m Brightness problem, please help!

Hello,
I bought a monitor a month back, when i used it with my laptop it was great. But, now when i use my laptop's screen, with the power PLUGGED in, it is dark, and when it is unplugged it is brighter. Before using the moniter it was vice-versa what it is now, how can i change this back to the way it was, or if i could set it so that it is always brighter.
 
Thanks,
lem0n

    lem0n,
     
    There are three ways to adjust the screen brightness.  The easiest is Fn+Up/Down Arrow.  You can also adjust the brightness in the BIOS or by using the Dell Quickset utility.
     
    The brightness on AC power and on battery are separate settings, and even if you use Fn+Arrows, it should stay that way even after a reboot.
