I have a toshiba laptop s2800-200 (naturally the model doesn't exist on toshiba's website) Whenever I plug in the mains adaptor the screen backlight goes off. If it's running on battery it's fine. Is this a software setting or a failed item of hardware?

A friend of mine has a VA3000SNA case, where the two fans are rated at 21dB. However they make a noise like a hurricane, which is amplified by the honeycomb grille of the case. The grilles will be replaced, but I'd like a fan controller to lower the speeds slightly …
