Award BIOS Setup Utility

3.1.2 BIOS Features Setup

The BIOS Features Setup allows you to configure your system for

basic operation. Some entries are defaults required by the system

board, while others, if enabled, will improve the performance of your

system or let you set some features according to your preference.

The settings on the screen are for reference only. Your version may not be

identical to this one.

Virus Warning

This category protects the boot sector and partition table of your hard

disk drive. When this item is enabled, the Award BIOS will monitor the

boot sector and partition table of the hard disk drive. If an attempt

is made to write to the boot sector or partition table of the hard disk

drive, the BIOS will halt the system and an error message will appear.

After seeing the error message, if necessary, you will be able to run

an anti-virus program to locate and remove the problem before any

damage is done.

Many disk diagnostic programs which attempt to access the boot

sector table will cause the warning message to appear. If you are

running such a program, we recommend that you first disable this

category. Also, disable this category if you are installing or running

certain operating systems like Windows

®

95/98 or the operating

system may not install nor work.
