PC 6150/FPC6150 User's Manual
Virus Warning
This item protects the boot sector and partition table of the hard disk
against accidental modifications. If an attempt is made, the BIOS will halt
the system and display a warning message. If this occurs, the user can
either continue the operation 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. Thus,
disable the Virus Warning feature while running any of
these programs..

memory, for even faster access by the CPU. These items are used to

default, these are Enabled.
