This will stop the most of the time useless seeking of a floppy disk at boot time. 

If you need to reinstall Windows or some other operation, you can always go back and change this entry to floppy or CD.  Also there should be a setting in your BIOS to make the boot, quick.  All this means is that your PC will not do the most of the time useless checking of your memory at boot time.
