Virus Warning
During and after system boot up, any attempt to write to the boot sector or
partition table of the hard disk drive halts the system and an error message
appears.
You should then run an anti-virus program to locate the virus. Keep in mind
that this feature protects only the boot sector, not the entire hard drive. The
default is Disabled.
Enabled: Activates automatically when the system boots up causing a
warning message to appear when anything attempts to access the
boot sector.
Disabled: No warning message appears when anything attempts to access
the boot sector.
Note: Many disk diagnostic programs that access the boot sector table
can trigger the virus warning message. If you plan to run such a
program, we recommend that you first disable the virus warning.
