Hi Rugxulo, Teddy,
by LiveCD, Teddy means a bootable CD which can be used without
installation. Of course any other bootable CD, including some

And no Asus "decide" that their computer will still give the ability to set

the whole point of a boot virus is that it makes the

Of course if the disk has no operating system on it,

We'd just like an "official" confirmation if FreeDOS can really cause this kind
of problem, and if not then we'll use it against Asus in a trial, and prevent
Asus from sueing FreeDOS.

Hi Eric, thanks for your answer.
For the past 20 years, since Windows 95, most (or maybe all) PCs had the HDD as
third or forth boot option, mainly after floppy disk and optical drive. So this
