    for those buttons to work you need drivers for that keyboard. see who actually makes the keyboard as possibly not apple.

    maybe label on bottom side of keyboard. check the mac form below not above as that is for video & see if somebody there would know. also what does the keyboard come up as in device manager because some might show logitech if made by that company?

    I'm afraid I don't have much experience with apple keyboards running under windows. If you are using a mac with bootcamp, I think there are settings in there...but it has been so long since I had to use a mac that I don't remember.
