TITLE   :F1 Key Displays Dr. Watson Help in a Virtual MS-DOS Machine
PRODUCT :Windows NT
PROD/VER:3.10
OPER/SYS:WINDOWS
KEYWORDS:buglist3.10

----------------------------------------------------------------------
The information in this article applies to:

 - Microsoft Windows NT operating system version 3.1
 - Microsoft Windows NT Advanced Server version 3.1
----------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS
========

If Dr. Watson is running and you press the F1 key for Help while you
are in a virtual MS-DOS machine (VDM), Dr. Watson for Windows NT Help
displays instead.

CAUSE
=====

Dr. Watson traps the F1 keystroke and displays its Help file when the
F1 key is pressed. This will occur even if the foreground application
uses the F1 key to display its Help. The foreground application's Help
screen will be displayed and then Dr. Watson's Help screen will be
displayed on top of it.

RESOLUTION
==========

To view the foreground application's Help screen, close the Dr. Watson
Help screen.

STATUS
======

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Windows NT version 3.1
and Windows NT Advanced Server version 3.1. We are researching this
problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge
Base as it becomes available.
