    I was wondering if all the FN keys work in WinXP? Like brightness, sleep, sound, etc.

    My experience is all except one function F5 (display toggle) are working. I'm actually waiting for some feedback about this in the forum.

    Hey loopyoyo, can you please confirm if pressing Fn+F5 lets you select your display output (second monitor to laptop, vice versa). Thanks!

    It actually works without installing any software. The only problem is it will not show you the status or so called (OSD).
