I am assuming that you tried using the function Fn key with F5 & F6 and they didn't have any effect.
If you don't have the Vaio control center installed or running, and don't want to add it, then right-click on the desktop & choose 'Graphics Properties ...' and you should be opened into the display driver's control center (i.e. on my Vaio that puts me in the 'Intel Graphics and Media Control Panel'); chose 'Color Enhancement' from there & you can manually adjust the brightness, contrast, etc. However, this method is a static setting.

You can also adjust the brightness to a static setting for plugged-in and on-battery, using the granular power options in Windows 7: Control Panel ➯ Power Options.
