Answer:

Boot sector

Boot sector A floppy disc left in the floppy drive frequently spreads viruses.

Explanation:

A boot sector virus is a type of virus that affects the Master Boot Record (MBR) of hard drives and the boot sector of floppy discs (although some boot sector viruses affect the hard disk's boot sector instead of the MBR). While boot sector viruses infect at the BIOS level, they propagate to other floppy discs using DOS commands.

The first programme to load on your computer is the boot sector. Parity Boot is a prime example of a boot sector virus. The infection of this virus freezes the operating system and shows the message PARITY CHECK, rendering the computer unusable.

A boot sector is a section of a hard drive, floppy disc, optical disc, or other data storage medium that contains machine code that a computer system's internal firmware will load into random-access memory (RAM).
