strange error at startup

[Pierluigi Panunzi]

hi!
I'm working with version 0.13.0 on a Windows 7 Home Premium , 64bit.
Everything worked fine (as usual!) since when I downloaded the 0.13.0 version. No problems at all !

Suddenly, starting from about two weeks, at every launch, a very strange popup appears (as you can see in attachment) with this error, that I translate from italian:
"It's impossible to find a disk in the unit. Insert a disk in unit F:"
with three buttons ("quit", "retry" and "continue"), which show the same behaviour: every time I push one of the three, randomly, or always the same, the same popup appears, with the accompanying "bong" on the loudspeakers, and this happens for at least 15 times!!!
So only after more than 15 "bongs" I can acces the program. :o

That's driving me crazy, because I never had such a problem.
I tried uninstalling completely the program and then reinstalling a new fresh copy, but the problem still remains.

For your info, apart from the log.txt file that I attach here, the "F:" drive unit is the front "SD memory" reader, the one I usually use to read photographs from my camera or my video recorder.

BTW if I insert any SD card in the F: slot and launch Stellarium, or when the infamous popup appears, then everything goes well as usual and the program starts!!
Strangely enough, I have never had any problem with the SD card reader, indeed.

I'm wondering why Stellarium has this strange behaviour and why it searches 15 times to access drive "F:": but even ONE search of "F:" could be strange at all.

As a compromise, near my PC I have an empty and unused SD card, just to insert it before I run Stellarium (at least once a day) or when it complains with this ugly error... but obviously I'm not satisfied with this! :)

what do you think about?
thanks
