Slow Screenset

I decided to work with screensets a bit to see if I could learn to like them.  I've got one screenset that takes about 45 seconds to load on a project.  Nothing that I can see to cause that when it finally loads.
 
Clues?

Check if you have a floppy disk controller enabled in the BIOS (regardless of whether you actually have a drive).  Disabling it made a world of difference for me.

Possibility: The explorer (file tree) in the browser may be open and refreshing itself every time you enter that screenset. That was probably the culprit behind the floppy controller slowdown. Now (X1D), if that file tree is not open in the screenset, it is not refreshed.

Stevec is right had the same problem. Just disable your floppy drive in the device manager

This was the issue.  Even though the browser wasn't open the Explorer was affecting the load time. I closed the browser completely in that screenset and cured the problem.

Eh? How can you not love screensets already? I'm in shock and need to lay down......
