    Hey all i recently downgraded my VGN-FZ240E to XP and i was able to get everything working well and i am aware of the fact that the fn brightness keys will not work but is there anyway to get the brightness to change when you manually change it in power settings? Do i need a specific driver for the laptop lcd or something because this is starting to drain my power very fast and i do not want to have to go back to vista just because it made my battery last longer. I am a college student and i am in class all day and my battery only lasts half way through my second class of the day. Any help would be appreciated
