wtf. i just installed mandrake 9 on this old ass machine. i didnt do anything to the bios. after install, i start to boot, and trend-chip away says that mandrake is a virus and i should get rid of it immediately. dumb...
i did let me continue to boot up though.

Doogee:
err, didnt someone else have this prob? was it bazoukas?

xyle_one:
i dont know. if so, someone should just delete this thread.....

TheQuirk:
This is because Mandrake modified the MBR, a practive done by some viruses. You're safe to ignore it--ideally, I'd check with your AV software to disable MBR protection.

xyle_one:
word. thanks
