OK, then you probably have a buggy BIOS which returns a different 
geometry than it's actually simulating.  Try upgrading your BIOS frist; 
then try using "USB-ZIP" or "USB-FDD" as the simulation mode (assuming 
you have "USB-HDD" now) and using an unpartitioned device.

Other than that I probably can't help you.
