Virus Warning
This field protects the boot sector and partition table of your hard disk against acci-
dental modifications. Any attempt to write to them will cause the system to halt and
display a warning message. If this occurs, you can either allow the operation to
continue or use a bootable virus-free floppy disk to reboot and investigate your
system. The default setting is “Disabled”. This setting is recommended because
conflicts with new operating systems. Installation of new operating systems require
that you disable this to prevent write errors.
