How to activate the numerical "keypad" and other accessary key pads (marked in blue) on a Gateway Laptop?

My Gateway Laptop has an "Fn" key highlighted in blue in the lower left of the key pad. When I use it (press down on it) and use another of the accesroy (in blue) keys - eg. screen brightness / screen dimmness - nothing happens. What is the procedure? What else might I be doing that I am not? It seem this should be a simple process...so I figure I am missing something. Serious and fairly simple answers only! Thanks!
