FN keys don't go in NR10M/S

[inyec]

Hello!
I have a notebook Sony VGN-NR10M/S and I installed Windows XP and all drivers. But de fn keys don't go, so I can't change the brightness of the screen. What should I do?

Thank you very much.

Things like the Fn keys are managed by the Sony Utilities.

Unfortunately, as Sony do not support XP on your model, they have not released any XP Utilities and the Vista ones will not work with XP.

There is a chance you will not succeed in getting these to work as your model is new and has been designed to run Vista.

Your only hope is to try installing the 'Original Utilities Package' for the VGN-N11S. The N-Series is very similar to the NR-Series, so they may work. The N11S was released running XP. You can download them from here: -

Good Luck!

Thank you.

I tried with de utilities for N1 and models that have a "N" in the name, but the keys don't go. With de utilities for N1 it appears a display with the volume keys (FN + F1, F2 or F3), but not with brightness.
