My home PC has a small virus checker that is integrated into the mainboard
(I don't recall if it is "Panda Platinum") but it is *very* basic, checking
only for boot sector viruses during the power on self test (POST). I guess
it just checks to be sure that the boot sector hasn't gotten changed. I can,
turn it off in the BIOS setup options. Since it runs during POST, it is done
and out of the way before my normal virus software loads and runs. I
suspect that other mainboard-based virus checkers behave much the same way.

A system can only have one anti-virus active and installed. If you have
Norten
licenced already and it'll be good for as long as panda will, uninstall
panda
and install Norten. What to you mean the antivirus is part of the
motherboard?
Motherboards are the hardware of the computer they do things before Windows
starts.
