F8 in a virtual machine

Published on July 15, 2011

I'm trying to set up a new Windows XP virtual machine (in Microsoft's Virtual Server) and the F8 (to accept the EULA) wouldn't in the virtual machine. I searched Bing (google searches are useless lately) and most websites say you need to set the F-lock key. However, I'm using a Toshiba laptop to access the VM and it doesn't have an F-lock – the F keys are on by default. I tried every key combo I could think of but nothing worked… then I tried Ctrl+Shift+Alt+F8… and it worked!
