Microsoft Windows? handles during OS startup the following function keys:
-F8 -- To access Windows boot menu (all Windows versions)
-F4 -- To start previous DOS version (Windows 9x, ME)
The Office keyboard has by design the Office Wizard enabled when the system starts up.
As such pressing functions keys F4 and F8 are configured for operations under Windows as unhanced Function Keys
F4: The save key saves the active file with current file name, location and file format.
F8: The redo key reverses the action of the Undo command.
Therefore when Windows starts up, pressing F4 and F8 gives the key codes for these operations, this prevents however Windows from entering the boot menu or start the previous DOS version. |
