It'a a usual occurance when changing hardware, as far as I know. Just go into CMOS setup and save. At next reboot it shouldn't come up.

What size is it, and how old is the BIOS? It might be a disk capacity limit in some older BIOSes.

bios 1994

4gb

Not too sure but this might be the 2Gb limit... that's certainly quite an old machine.
