Subject: My N3290 BIOS doesn't recognize 20GB HD

I just got an IBM travelstar 20GN 20GB HD and
use it to replace the one that came with the notebook PC.
But the BIOS doesn't get the correct numbers
of cylinder and head. The BIOS also doesn't allow me to enter the numbers.
I tried to install the BIOS on HP's site and the one for win2k and none of them work.

Any idea? Thanks.

try it after powering off and take out the battery for 10 minutes or so
