wrong hard drive displayed

Have a DX2300, SN# mxm80601lx. Installed a Seagate barracuda 750 GB hard drive as a second drive and only seeing a max of 2GB. Is this a HP problem or Vista? If so do you know what the fix is for it? It does come up in my computer with a drive letter but only sized as 2GB.

According to the product QuickSpecs, it only accepts disks up to 250 GB:

You cannot just insert an non-HP part and expect it to be accepted and work perfectly.
