Default "diskette drive 0 seek failure" while rebooting

hi
i am getting this message wen i reboot my system after i installed a
dell printer on the dell computer. wen ever i reboot, its getting stuck
on this screen for about 5 minutes with this message and then boots to
desktop.

i tried uninstalling the printer drivers, the computer boots but that
message flashes on the screen before it boots to desktop.
