Wireless turning off and brightness dimming? HELP! vista.

Hi..

I have just brought a new laptop (Packard bell mini thing) with windows vista. When im using the laptop it sometimes tuns off the wireless connection on its own?? and also dims the brightness of the screen? (seperate events). I have to do an internet fix to turn the wireless back on.

The stranger problem is the brightness of the screen dims itself and when i try to turn in back up using keys... Fn F7, the brightness up button does not respond.. the brightness down button does though??

Any thoughts

Thanks in advance.
