[Jiggy]

ok heres a funny question for you all, when i shut down my pc (start/shutdown) it shuts down ok, but before it does so it checks the floppy drive, why does this happen? is it the same for all systems.

Either an antivirus program is set to check the floppy on shut down or Windows is checking for unsaved files to try and save before going bye-bye.
