I think its more likely you have a problem with your startup sequence maybe there is something missing.
How many floppy drives do you have?
If you only have one then what i may get you to do is very painful.. First you need to see if even your s:startup-sequence file is even there.
load up workbench
open the boot hard drive and then open S Folder
IF you can't see startup-sequence there then right click and go to window on the menu bar go down to show and click show all and see if startup-sequence is there if it is double click it.
Check to see if any error come up.
If its there then you have to see what is inside the startup sequence.
Goto your workbench disk and open up the system folder. then double click shell
type in "S:" hit enter
then type in "ed startup-sequence"
it should load ed with the startup sequence there now you can edit it and make changes to it
A basic startup sequence should look like this. (A1200)
; STARTUP-SEQUENCE BEGIN
set echo on

C:IDEFIX

Don't forget to click project and save after that exit and reboot (without floppies inside) and see how you go..
