venim Posted October 19, 2003 Posted October 19, 2003 Well every time my windows xp start it seeks for floppy disk.I want to disablet this.In win98 this was easy.Have searched the system properties but found nothing...So....Any help?
Jono Posted October 19, 2003 Posted October 19, 2003 set your bootorder to CDROM Hardisk, or Harddisk, CDROM only change to floppy, HARDDISK if you really need it.
MSNwar Posted October 19, 2003 Posted October 19, 2003 If it still does it after checking the BIOS Boot Sequence open Windows Exploer, insert a floppy diskette, open it, give it a few seconds for the light to go off, eject it. Still in Windows Explorer switch to drive c. Close Windows Exploer and reboot the machine. Come back here if that does not fix it.
venim Posted October 19, 2003 Author Posted October 19, 2003 Thanx for the replies.Well I don't want to change my boot sequence this is made from the bios I know that.I want to disable the floppy seek that windows do when you login and logoff..
MSNwar Posted October 19, 2003 Posted October 19, 2003 Do you have an Anti-Virus program such as Norton or McAafee? Check the settings as they will scan the floppy drive on start-up and shut-down. Also, are your Windows Updates up-to-date? There is a Windows XP Update that fixes this problem.
