Kapok Computer Co. notebook with AMI 'WinBIOS' which seems to insist on having a short jump and nop as the first instructions in the boot sector code. The prevailing theory is that the BIOS is doing some sort of boot sector virus detection and refusing to run any boot block that doesn't start with the same instruction sequence as MS-DOG boot sector code. If this is the case, it would be nice if it actually printed an error message to this effect instead of just saying 'FAILED.' This workaround has no effect on the boot sector code other than to increase its size by three bytes. |
