I have some questions about virus,
Can a virus cause damage to a Hard Drive or Motherboard physically or it only damages a perticular file like system file running in an OPERATING SYSTEM?
I hope my question is clear

Virus damage is limited to software, although some viruses can require an OS reinstall.
