windows 10 brightness control on 2009 MBP
I just upgraded my Mid-2009 15-inch Macbook Pro from Windows 7 to Windows 10 and the Bootcamp drivers for controlling the brightness no longer work. I tried reinstalling Bootcamp but because Apple doesn't officially support anything higher than Windows 7 on my computer I cannot reinstall it. I tried installing individual drivers such as the keyboard and NVIDIA but nothing has fixed the issue. Other keyboard shortcuts (ie volume, keyboard brightness) still work. I am not even able to change the brightness using the brightness slider in the Bootcamp menu in the taskbar (it will still slide and I can Apply changes, but it doesn't actually make any changes). The only thing I've found that works is to open the NVIDIA icon in the taskbar and choose to modify brightness with that directly, which is very inconvenient considering I can no longer adjust brightness using the F1 and F2 keys. I've read a lot of other posts but none of the solutions I've found worked (mostly all say reinstall bootcamp drivers). Does anyone know how to make it so the brightness controls on the keyboard work again? Thanks for any input.
