Hi all

I need upgrade my BIOS to use HDD more than 32 gigabytes.
My BIOS specifications are:

BIOS type: Award Modular BIOS v4.51PG.

BIOS date: 02/01/99

BIOS ID: 02/01/99-i440BX-SMC60X-2A69KX3DC-00

Chipset: Intel 440BX

MotherBoard: Acorp 6BX81 ver:2A



I also want to inform I downloaded from acorp web site the awdflash programmer AWD780.EXE and the Bios Patch 6bx81v2d.bin but when I tried upgrading, the awdflash programmer answer me
"The program file's part number does not match with your system"

How can I solve the problem???

THANKS YOU ALL for helping me

Bye, Sandro

You can apply the /py switch. That message is typical with some Acorp boards (non-Acorp originally), since they originally respected the original Vendor code but then changed it to X3 (e.g. 2A69KX3DC )
