Have you adjusted your BIOS setting for startup sequence?
It maybe that your hdd may have low priority, and BIOS maybe
trying to boot from other devices (network, fdd, cd-rom, etc.),
Especially, if your fdd is removable and if you have it removed,
and if fdd comes before hdd in startup sequence, you'll be made
wait for sometime.
