hi

problem solved and it was in mbr. rewrited it and LBA is enabled in BIOS.

new fdisk output:

Disk /dev/hda: 30.7 GB, 30750031872 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 3738 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes

   Device Boot      Start         End      Blocks   Id  System
/dev/hda1   *           1        2955    23728288+   7  HPFS/NTFS
/dev/hda2            2956        3738     6289447+   f  W95 Ext'd (LBA)
/dev/hda5            2956        3738     6289416    7  HPFS/NTFS
