how do i change my volume and where is the fn key in this keyboard

    Is it possible to control the master volume with some keyboard shortcut? I would prefer it to be without a use of some additional software.But if it isn't possible then the software should be pretty light-weight and not consume a lot of CPU/RAM. Thank you for your help.
    PS: I DON'T intend to buy a multimedia keyboard for that.
    Yes,you can create a Master Volume Shortcut and also assign a Shortcut Key.

    Right click on a empty area on desktop, and click on New and Shortcut.

    Paste the following in to the location of the item area:-

    %windir%\System32\SndVol.exe -f 49825268
    Click Next button and give a name to the Shortcut and click Finish.

    Now You right click on it and select Properties.

    Click Shortcut tab.

    Assign your desired shortcut key like F8 or F9 in the Shortcut Key area.

    Click OK/Apply.
