iMac starts up at full brightness

[BlakTornado]

I have a Rev A (Aug 2007) alum iMac (20") and ever since I installed 10.5.8, the screen has been set on full brightness on every startup.
I'm currently running Snow Leopard and the problem persists. I erased and installed during the procedure so I don't think it can really be a corrupted system file or something...

Anyone have any ideas/the same issue?

bro, this has been brought up before. What you need to do is not have the brightness all the way down or up. Have it somewhere in between.

Have you reset your PRAM?

I've noticed this behavior before as well.

Set it to one more than 0, and it will save it.

Thanks Eidorian for the quote you posted. That did the trick. Just had to adjust my screen brightness slightly above 0 and now the startup no longer is at full brightness.

Thank you, resetting the PRAM worked for me.
