Fn + Esc usually toggles Fn on/off on Lenovo laptops (unless of course your Fn key is physically damaged!)<br />
Easy to do accidentally when going for Fn+F1

Fn+Esc doesn't toggle &nbsp;Fn &nbsp;on/off on my x230 &nbsp;while<br />
Win+X &nbsp;key does bring up the various adjustment menus.<br />
<br />
After rebooting, the Fn key works again, odd.<br />
Thanks very much guys.

<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
my x230 Thinkpad's &nbsp;Fn (ie Function) key appears not working:<br />
I've tried pressing Fn- F8/F9 &amp;&nbsp;other keys but not getting response<br />
so reckon it's the Fn key.<br />
<br />
What other key combination can I press to get equivalent of Fn ?<br />
Mostly to increase/decrease Brightness but I can't locate any bar<br />
to adjust brightness in my Control Panel's &nbsp;&quot;Adjust Brightness&quot; <br />
in Windows 7<br />
<br />
As this is a very old laptop, I don't plan to get it repaired.

A laptop or notebook is a portable personal computer with a clamshell form factor, suitable for mobile use. Although originally there was a distinction between laptops and notebooks, the former being bigger and heavier than the latter, there is often no longer any difference. Laptops are commonly used in a variety of settings, such as at work, in education, and for personal multimedia. A laptop combines the components, inputs, outputs and capabilities of a desktop computer, including the display screen, speakers, a keyboard, and pointing devices (such as a touchpad or trackpad) into a single unit. The device can be powered either from a rechargeable battery or by mains electricity from an AC adapter.
