Hey guys, first thread, and I'm glad i can be apart of this community. I recently installed Windows from BootCamp and the keyboard always stays on. I tried doing the CMD F5 and the light dims, but it doesn't go all the way off. Any advice. Thanks again.

Make sure you have the most recent updates. By default, the special hot keys work without having to press anything else along with them. On my MBP F8 is the function key that turns the backlight off, so try that. Also try using FN + F8 (or whichever function key it is for you).
