Boot Up Floppy Seek
When Enabled, the BIOS tests (seeks) floppy drives to determine whether they have 40 or 80 tracks. 
Only 360-KB floppy drives have 40 tracks. Drives with 720KB, 1.2MB, and 1.44MB capacity all 
have 80 tracks. Because very few modern PCs have 40-track floppy drives, we recommend that you 
set this field to “Disabled”. 
Options: Enabled、Disabled (default)
