F8 problems when installing Windows XP |
||||||||
I was recently performing a windows XP rebuild for a client, and noticed that when I reached the EULA agreement in windows XP's installation routine I was prompted to 'press F8' to signify that I agreed to it.
The only problem was the F8 key was disabled! It appears that during a rebuild on top of an existing invalid installation of XP, windows will disable the function keys.
It was then that I noticed the function lock key. The Fn key works just like the scroll lock, or number lock keys, except that it disables/enables the function keys!
It was a simple matter to press Fn once, then press F8 to agree to the licence.
Still don't know why they are disabled during the installation though....

Windows xp shows a lot of problems when we are running these windows. It also shows the installations setups when we are installing these windows in our computers. We should use http://essayshop.biz/index.php?route=product/produ... this website.
