Boot Up Floppy Seek

Common Options : Enabled, Disabled

Quick Review

This BIOS feature determines whether the BIOS checks for a floppy drive during boot-up or not.

If enabled, the BIOS will attempt to detect and initialize the floppy drive. If it cannot detect one, it will flash an error message. However, the system will still be allowed to continue the boot process.

If this feature is disabled, the BIOS will skip the floppy drive check. This speeds up the booting process by several seconds.

Since a floppy drive check is really pointless, it is recommended that you disable this feature for a faster booting process.

If you like to know more about this and other BIOS settings, why not subscribe to the full BIOS Optimization Guide?
