The key to access the bios (F2, F10, del or whatever) is used long before the operating system comes into play - in fact, you don't need an operating system or even a hard drive for that to work. If you can't access the bios it has nothing to do with boot.ini.
F Lock Key.
"The F Lock key on the Microsoft Keyboards is a relatively new concept facility for Microsoft Keyboards. Introduced with the Office Keyboard and used in later keyboards, it essentially allows keys to do more than one operation. The F Lock key, depending on its state, will allow either a function key's "normal" operation or a new "enhanced" operation. The initial state of the F Lock key is "off", and in this state, the function keys use their "enhanced" operation".
