Question : F8 Produces a blue screen with gears as the picture

I am trying to install XP Pro in Microsoft Virtual PC 2007 running under Vista Business but when I get to the point to select F8 to accept the license; I press it and blue gears appear on the screen.
So I closed Virtual PC and just hit F8 from my desktop and it does the same thing.  Is there a way I can easily remove the hotkey function and just enable a regular F8 function?
Computer is a HP xw4300 workstation using the standard stock HP keyboard. No, hotkeys.

Thanks in advance!
