After some thinking....

Maybe you are stuck on this first "White Luminance" window expecting to adjust the 
brightness with the Spyder? It's not here where you use the Spyder this window is telling you 
to adjust the monitor to full brightness via the monitor's controls.

If so skip this window and go on to the profiling process where the software will ask you to 
attach the Spyder to the monitor. In mid test another "White Luminance" window will open 
and it's here where you adjust the brightness/backlight of the monitor while measuring with 
the Spyder.
