floppy searching during welcome screen

[Guest]

after the welcome screen appered for some while (about a minute), the floppy
drive seems like searching for floppy disk or the floppy drive light shine
for about 2 seconds. What is that? How to disable it?

Go into your BIOS and change the boot sequence setting. This article should
help:

this thing occured after boot up. Changing boot sequence or disable flooppy
searching doesn't resolve my issue.

The boot sequence has nothing to do with this. Either you have your
antivirus set to scan the floppy drive on startup and/or you have something
set to start up with Windows that runs from floppy. The former is more
likely, so look at your antivirus program's options and disable the floppy
scans at startup and shutdown.

Probably is the antivirus that check your floppy.. Go to A/V settings and
see if "Check fdd at startup" is enable
