Need BIOS-Patch for 80GB HDD

Hi,

I want to use a Samsung 80GB hdd in combination with my old MSI board.
Since the system hangs while detecting the drive (after memory check), I assume I need a patched BIOS, that allows larger hdds.
I searched the net for an appropriate BIOS-version, but didn't find a patched BIOS matching my system specs.

My current BIOS is:

BIOS Type: Award Modular BIOS v4.51PG
BIOS ID: 10/28/97-i430TX-2A59IM4AC-00
W5148MS V2.3 040998

It would be great if anyone had a piece of advice ....

Thanks in advance.
