Fn key not working in Windows Server 2003

[dellasan]

Hi, I have installed Windows Server 2003 on my Sony Vaio VGN-N31Z/W in a partition (dual boot with the supplied os, Vista Premium). In Windows Server 2003 the Fn key doesn't work, what can I do? If the problem can't be solved is there a way to adjust monitor brightness without Fn key? Thanks

You can try installing the version for XP, but Sony don't support server OS' like Windows 2003 Server.

Hi Kee, thanks for the answer.
unfortunately there isn't a XP driver for my particular model (VGN-N31Z/W), only Vista is supported. I tried to install drivers for the most recent notebook of N series that provides XP drivers (VGN-N19EP/B) without any result.
Is Fn key the only way for changing monitor brightness?

I think you can do it in the display properties, but don't quote me on that as I've never seen an N series notebook.
