5.4.1 Virus Warning
When this function is enabled, the BIOS monitors the boot sector and partition table of the hard
disk drive for any attempt at modification. If an attempt is made, the BIOS will halt the system
and then display an error message. Afterwards, if necessary, you can run an anti-virus program
to locate and remove the problem before any damage is done.
Many disk diagnostic programs will attempt to access the boot sector table, which can cause the
above warning message. If you run such a program, we recommend that you first disable the
Virus Warning function beforehand.
