When I reviewed the Asus Eee PC 1005PE, I didn’t really think the display was any dimmer than other netbook screens I’ve tested. But then, I tend to keep display brightness near the middle setting most of the time.
But if you’re looking for a brighter display, Asus has issued BIOS updates for the Eee PC 1005PE and 1001P which should make the screen brighter.The latest BIOS for each model is version 0804.
Members of the EeeUser forum report that the update also seems to affect the netbook’s fan speed. After applying the update, users report that the fan seems to change speeds less frequently.
