It sounds like you have virus protection in your bios I suggest you look
in there to see if its enabled

Subject: [PCBUILD] Formatting a hard disk
Hi,
I formatted my hard drive a few days ago using a boot up disk at startup
and then format c:\. I then tried loading windows 95 onto it but
everytime it gets through scanning my system and accepting the contract
thing I get the following message: "Boot Sector Write. Possible Virus:
Continue Y/N?" And then the computer gets stuck and I always have to
reset. I tried my own Win95 CD and then a friend's. It still gives the
same message. If my computer does have a virus wouldn't it get deleted
when I format my whole hard disk? Someone suggested that it could be a
Boot sector virus. I have no idea what to do now. My computer is stuck.
Am I going about this the wrong way? Can someone help me?
Thanks,
Jigs.
