Adjusting Brightness

I'm trying to adjust to color on my laptop. In XP, I just went into Display
>Advanced Settings > Color to adjust the brightness up or down on a slide.

In Vista, Advanced Settings in Display takes me to Color Management and I
don't understand any of the options. Is there another way?

There should be a function key (Fn) on my Vaio it is next to the lefthand
control button (Cntl) on the bottom row. On the top row of keys (F1, F2
etc) some of the keys have signs like the tv controller. So hold down (Fn)
then tap the key with a sun shape +/-. They arnt always in the same place
but most keyboards have them.

FYI - In VIsta, it's in Control Panel, Power Options, Change Plan
Settings.
