I finally had a chance to install Cygwin and recompile Neptune's sample code for toggling the LEDs and backlight to run under Windows. Should make it easy to turn on the mail light from your mail notification program, etc. The Windows version has been sent to IA1Hacking.com and should show up at this URL within a few days:

Incidentally, if you're just trying to get your screen backlight to turn off in screensaver mode under Windows, see this thread for a better solution:

Thanks to Neptune for providing the original Linux source for ia1led.

How do you have installed windows on your AI-1 ??
could it be installed on 16 or 32Mo ?

or did you boot onto CF ? or Microdrive ?

In that last possibility ... how is detected the internal flash ?

Perhaps you could post the software here since it isn't showing up at IA1hacking web site...?
