why need title?
when u switch on the computer press the DEL key to enter the Bios.. there under PCI/PNP select disabled option for Floppy disk controller.. then save the changes by pressing F10 and then exit.. now restart the comp ur floppy drive is disabled.. also its the same way to enable it..

Right off the assembly line
When you turn on your pc, enter into BIOS by pressing apropriate key ( generally DEL ) , go to Advanced options, here you can enable or disable Boot Up Floppy Seek.....
