I looked at the information on this website regarding this board, But all the link's are pretty much dead ends now.

This is the info BIOS agent spat at me regarding the bios.

This is a machine manufactured by tiny, I read somewhere that the board is different, Don't know if thats true or not tho.

that's an AMI bios, we can't patch those. it seems http://www.esupport.com has a custom upgrade under part number 6Z69KM4O for updated processor support, since they usually deliver award bioses, chances are it supports disks up to 128GB as well. I not usually recommend paid upgrades but here we have no other options apart from buying a seperate add-in harddisk controller with its own bios so you can boot from it. By then you could go for a SATA one as well since large SATA disks are cheaper these days.
