Anti-Virus
The Anti-Virus setting is only relevant for floppy diskettes. Hard disk drives and RAID disk
drives are not checked by the Anti-Virus option. When Anti-Virus is enabled, diskettes
cannot be formatted unless a quick format is executed, which does not write to Track 0 on
the diskette. A format that writes to Track 0 will not be performed. The default is Disabled
to allow formatting of diskettes in all circumstances.
Default Menu
The BIOS contains three configurations stored in CMOS RAM: Original BIOS settings,
Optimal BIOS settings, and Fail-safe BIOS settings. The Original BIOS settings are the last
current BIOS values used in the system. The Optimal BIOS settings are used in the
delivered system. The Fail-safe BIOS settings are recommended when there has been a
system failure.
NOTE Loading the Optimal or Fail-safe BIOS settings overwrites all customized parameter settings.
If you have customized any parameters, record them before loading the Optimal or Fail-safe
settings.
