Depending on your boot sequence will determine where the machine goes for startup. Normally the system seeks out the C drive for boot instructions, then goes to the CD. Since I have an "A" drive my sequence is "C" first, then "A" and finally the "D" or dvd - cdrom drive. Those two keys you mention - at the boot up black screen is when you press F2 or F12. One will take you into the BIOS the other will start windows in SAFE mode or give you a choice.
