I have just installed a new printer, and it is working ok. However , when I boot up the computer , it stops and comes up with 'searching for boot record from USB RMD-FDD'. If I disconnect the usb cable , the computer boots up with no problem. On reconnecting the usb cable after boot up, the computer and printer work ok. Any idea what this 'USB RMD-FDD' is and how can it be resolved?

The boot device order is floppy, cd, harddisk.
 
In your BIOS is there a place to disable boot from USB?
There's a boot from LAN option, maybe there's one for USB.
 
It sounds like you have a setting in the Bios for your "1st Boot Device" as "USB RMD-FDD". Have a check of that and change the boot order.

This is normally seen when your Bios has been set up to boot from USB Devices.
