How do I determine the host key of the keyboard of my system ?

A: 

It's hard to know what you are asking without context. However, putting my psychic debugging hat on, I'm guessing you are asking "When I run Microsoft Virtual Server and the documentation says 'Press the host key' what does it mean?"

This page tells you more - the default is the right Alt key (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc708368(WS.10).aspx).

In which case, the question doesn't really belong on Stack Overflow, it isn't a programming question. If you are asking something else - sorry, my psychic powers failed me :-)

Actually I am trying to run Android x86 on a netbook, and I have to press Alt + F7 to return back to the GUI from the console screen. But somehow, this combination, that works fine on a PC and laptop is not working on the netbook. i checked around and hence discovered this " host key + F7 " term. Can u help me out in this ?

I've never used either of these systems, but a 10 second google found this web page: does that work for you? http://www.tech-recipes.com/rx/2691/virtualbox_change_host_key/
