LOL!
What mainboard do you have? My good old P55T2P4(?) had no problems with
big disks after a BIOS update.
HTH, Helmut
My trusty old P55T2P4 is still in service as a gateway/pf firewall box with
a K6-2 running at 500MHz (overclocked) and 128MB Ram. IIRC before the BIOS
update it maxed out at 8GB and after there was still something like a 137GB
limit with the system BIOS. Sticking an old Promise controller in there for
ATA-66 speed drive support and changing the BIOS boot order from "IDE"
(onboard) to "SCSI" (plugin card) took care of that.
