Virus Warning
This item 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. If this
occurs, you can either allow the operation to continue or run an
anti-virus program to locate and remove the problem.
NOTE:
Many disk diagnostic programs, which attempt to
access the boot sector table, can cause the virus
warning. If you will run such a program, disable the
Virus Warning feature.
