I specifically remember one occasion when I booted with a non-system
floppy accidentally left in the drive, and I didn't have any
problems.  The system said "Non-boot disk in drive A:" or something
like that, and let me remove the floppy, and press Enter to resume
booting.

I've encountered similar problems with an MBR-virus-infected floppy.
I suggest you check the diskette for a boot record virus.  I hope
it's not serious.

Or, could it be some BIOS problem?  That would be out of my league.
Anyone?
