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, reached by pressing F1
once, 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 5-3.
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 5-4).
