Virus Warning

When this function is enabled, you will receive a warning message if a program (specifically,

a virus) attempts to write to the boot sector or the partition table of the hard disk drive. You

should then execute an anti-virus program. Keep in mind that this feature protects the boot

sector only, not the entire hard drive.

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.
