No damage would have caused it except for it being placed down to hard. I can see the login page to enter details but it’s extremely difficult to see. It’s really dimmed. Please help
 
what is the Fn+brightness up key? have you tried manually turning up the brightness via the keyboard?
is the backlight on?
