Command
Type
Purpose
The SWITCHES command allows special CONFIG.SYS Þle options.
Syntax
SWITCHES=[/k][/n][/f]
Remarks
The /k argument makes an enhanced keyboard behave like a conventional style
keyboard.
The /n argument prevents the use of the F5 and F8 function keys to bypass the
startup commands.
The /f argument instructs ROM-DOS to skip the delay after displaying the Starting
ROM-DOS... message at boot time. The delay allows the user time to use the F5 and
F8 options to alter the processing of the startup Þles.
Examples
The following example prevents the user from using the F5 and F8 keys at boot
time.
switches = /n
