Hello,

I am sorry, because my english is very bad.

PC: Mitac Book PC BK6722
BIOS: Award v4.51PG
ID String: 05/17/1999-i440BX-W977-2A69KM3JC-00

I can not install a harddrive lager than 32GB.
The Mitac Service told me, that the support will not be continued for this PC. So the last BIOS (Book3 R17) will be the last version. And this BIOS only accept Hdds not larger than 32 GB. I want to install a 40 GB HDD.
Can anybody help me, please?

Great greeting from
