Virus Warning
This option protects the boot sector and partition table of your hard disk
against accidental modifications. If an attempt is made, the BIOS will halt the
system and display a warning message (such as the one below.) If this occurs,
you can either allow the operation to continue or run an anti-virus program to
locate and remove the problem.
! WARNING !
Disk boot sector is to be modified
Type “Y” to accept write or “N” to abort write
Award Software, Inc.
Enabled Activates automatically when the system boots. When the system
boots, it causes a warning message to appear when anything
attempts to access the boot sector or hard disk partition table.
Disabled No warning message will appear when anything attempts to access
the boot sector or hard disk partition table.
NOTE: Many disk diagnostic programs, which attempt to access the
boot sector table, can cause the above virus warning. If you are
running this type of program, it is recommended that you disable
the “Virus Warning” feature beforehand.
