AlphaBIOS uses DOS and Windows keyboard conventions for navigating the
interface and selecting items. The valid keystrokes are listed in the keyboard
help screens.
Two levels of keyboard help are available. The first level is reached by pressing
F1 once, and shows explanations of the keystrokes available for the specific part
of AlphaBIOS currently displayed. An example of the help displayed by pressing
F1 once, in this case from the CMOS Setup screen, is shown in Figure 3–3.
The second level of keyboard help, reached by pressing F1 from the first help
screen, shows explanations of the keystrokes available for navigating the
interface throughout AlphaBIOS (see Figure 3–4).
