I tried another thing and it al fixed up.
I have changed old IDE cable with new one.It was a cable that remained to me
from "40 GB HDD size limited old BIOS" days :) Sorry i dont know what its
name :)
With new cable all errors just disappeared.Still it was saying "your disc
geometry is wrong" while fdisking but everything is allright and
installation completed.
And one more thing, first booting after installation (and second and later)
may be it says like "First Boot Sector is Wrong.Press Y to fix or anykey to
cancel".If it is, go to BIOS and disable Virus Warning.
Thats all.
Thanks a lot...
