Hi ajzchips,

Thanks for your reply.
The link you have given is the current version I am using.
If you know of any latest version which will support 40gb harddisk
Please let me know.

Thanks & Regards,

Satish, I couldn't find any newer update, so I patched your BIOS release for HDD support upto 128GB.
