After installing window on macbook pro, my backlit keyboard does not work. Help me to turn it on plz!! Thank you very much
 
So no way to use backlit keyboard in window.????
IN mac os, my backlit keyboard still works normally.

And I also have problem with my sound device in window. after installing driver for sound , my sound work but when I plug headphone in, it doesn't work. How come?
 
That was a little misleading. Backlit keyboard definitely works in windows, as I can see now on my 13" MBP 2010. If you installed the drivers from the DVD and the keyboard won't light up after playing with the lighting controls, reinstall the drivers. Or just pick through the DVD until you find the ones that seem like they'd be for the keyboard, and install those so you don't have to go through the whole process.

For sound, you need to run the Apple software update program and download the update to bootcamp. It was a bug with the audio driver that shipped on the DVD.
 
The only problem with the Boot Camp drivers for this is that the backlight cannot be turned off, so you must not have installed the BC drivers as breathesrain indicates.

If not being able to turn them off annoys you enough, please install powerplan7 from http://www.powerplan7.com/
