Virus Warning -
When enabled, the
BIOS will warn the user when any
program attempts to write to or format the
boot sector. If an attempt is made, the
BIOS will halt the system and the
following error message will appear:
You can accept or abort this operation.
Note:
This feature is designed to guard against viruses that modify the boot sector on hard
disks. However, many disk diagnostic programs which attempt to access the boot sector
table, as well as partition and format programs, will also trigger this warning. If you will be
running such a program, you can disable Virus Protection first, or choose “Y” to accept the
boot sector modification when this message shows up.
! WARNING !
Disk boot sector is to be modified
Type "Y" to accept write or "N" to abort write
