Virus Warning:
The default setting of Virus Warning is “Disabled”. When it is enabled,
any attempt to write the boot sector and partition table will halt the system and cause a
warning message to appear. If this happens, you can use an anti-virus utility on a virus
free, bootable floppy diskette to reboot, to clean and to investigate your system.
