TITLE :Difficult to Use F5 & F8 Keys on Data General Computers
--------------------------------------------------------------------
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft MS-DOS operating system version 6.0
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Summary:
Data General machines may have difficulty accepting input from the F5 and
F8 keys, which are used to bypass or step through the CONFIG.SYS and
AUTOEXEC.BAT files. You must press the F5 or F8 key immediately after
hearing the first beep from your computer BIOS at system startup. You may
have to press the F5 or F8 key many times.
On most computers, you have a few seconds to press the F5 or F8 key after
you see the "Staring MS-DOS..." prompt and hear the beep.
For more information, contact Data General.
