Keyboard Alt-The Alt keys (pos. 93/95) can be used in conjunction with the same keys available for use with the Ctrl keys with the exception that position 14 (SysRq) is available instead of position 16 (Break). The Alt key can also be used in conjunction with the numeric keypad keys (pos. 55-57, 72-74, and 88-90) to enter the decimal value of an ASCII character code from 1-255. The application determines the actual function of the keystrokes. Both Alt key positions provide identical functionality. The combination keystroke of Alt and SysRq results in software interrupt 15h, AX=8500h being executed. It is up to the application to use or not use this BIOS function. The Ctrl and Alt keys can be used together in conjunction with keys in positions 1-13, 17-34, 39-54, 60-71, and 76-84.

Keyboard
Alt
—The
Alt
keys (pos. 93/95) can be used in conjunction with the same keys available for use
with the
Ctrl
keys with the exception that position 14 (
SysRq)
is available instead of
position 16
(
Break
). The
Alt
key can also be used in conjunction with the numeric keypad keys (pos. 55-57,
72-74, and 88-90) to enter the decimal value of
an ASCII character code from 1-255.
The
application determines the actual function of the keystrokes. Both
Alt
key positions provide
identical functionality.
The combination keystroke of
Alt
and
SysRq
results in software
interrupt 15h, AX=8500h being executed. It is up to the application to use or not use this BIOS
function.
The
Ctrl
and
Alt
keys can be used together in conjunction with keys in positions 1-13, 17-34,
39-54, 60-71, and 76-84. The
Ctrl
and
Alt
key positions used and the sequence in which they are
pressed make no difference as long as they are held down at the time the third key is pressed. The
Ctrl
,
Alt
, and
Delete
keystroke combination (required twice if in the Windows environment)
initiates a system reset (warm boot) that is handled by the BIOS.

(marked with the Windows logo
) have the same functionality and are used by themselves or
