You have the latest release already, and a BIOS that new should already have large HDD support.

hy,
sometimes my hdd is on, some times not !!!
i think i need a new controller or a flashed bios

Sometimes on, sometimes not? I believe it's an HDD problem then.

on ervery other computer it works !!!
i don´t understand.

Try with a new IDE cable.

it´s the third cable ;-(
it works

Is it only not detected at cold bood or at warm boot (reset) as well ?

Do you enter HDD parameters in Bios setup or is it autodetected at every boot ?

Do you hear some strang enoises from your HDD ?

It's possible you HDD needs to0 long for self-initialization and Bios HDD detect skipped it
