Hi!
I am looking for help getting 60Gb hard drive being recognized by Award BIOS on this VTech (PCPartner) motherboard. I've tried the BIOS update on PCPartner site, but w/o success
(The UNIFLASH indicates that it is 1Mb BIOS IC).
Can somebody please help?
Thanks,
CaptSolo

A link is always handy, if you have identified the correct BIOS. What model is the board ?

Unfortunately the link (
www.pcpartner.com/...) points to the BIOS update that I've already tried without success.
I guess I need to find a BIOS patched for recognizing >32Gb hdds.
Somebody knows if there is such a thing for this m/b?
PS It's LXA833D I think

Thanks, Nick!
The last problem is that I cannot access the file you pointed to
http://wims.rainbow-software.org/nicks/ ... 201Mb).zip.
Your server replies 403 - no permission to access this file.

When you click the link in my signature, can you see the index ?
If so, can you click on the filename to download it ?
[edit]fixed the link in the previous message body, missing "/" at the end gives a 403.
