My new 15.6" Vortex IV arrived last week, and this afternoon I noticed that one side of the backlit keyboard doesn't light up anymore. At the time I was running Space Engineers, so the laptop was working fairly hard, but I didn't notice it being particularly warm, and certainly no warmer than usual while playing other games. I've turned the backlit keyboard off then on, and rebooted the laptop having left it off for several hours, and initially the entire keyboard is lit, but once it's fully booted up, the left side goes out again.
Anyone know what could have caused this, and how to fix it, or is it likely that the keyboard is broken and needs to be fixed?
The attached pictures don't show it too well, however hopefully you can see that the left side is distinctly darker than the right, and in reality it is essentially unlit.
