Caps lock light is a typical feature on almost all laptops, it does not indicate a backlit keyboard. It probably does not have a backlit keyboard but if you go to the support page and type in the service tag number you can check on the systems configuration as shipped. And if the BIOS does not show a backlit keyboard then you can pretty well be assured of a non-backlit keyboard.
Hi, I have a Vostro 5459, I tried turning backlit on by pressing F10 and Fn+F10 but none of these work, BUT when I pressed the Caps Lock button, the backlit turned on only Caps Lock. I checked in bios and at Keyboard Type it says non-backlit. I have no idea if there was backlit when it was bought because this is my mother's old laptop and she can't remember about that. Any idea to turn it on or does it only have on Caps Lock button? Thanks
