I´ve several problems with my motherboard M6VBE within my Fujitsu-Siemens PC Pentium III 500. The PC runs with Windows XP.
I´ve tried to install a 120 GB HD which doesn´t work. Trying to solve the problem I´ve updated my BIOS with "vbe1118a.bin dated 29.11.2002". I´ve found the BIOS update on the Fujitsu-Siemens site.
After having updated my BIOS "bluescreens" came up. The messages within the various bluescreens are the following:
1. PFN_list_corrupt
2. Memory_management
3. IRQ_not_less_or_equal
4. Kernel_data_inpage_error
Which BIOS update can I use to avoid those bluescreens and to install my 120GB HD?
The BIOS Informations from my PC are the following:
BIOS Manufacturer: Award Modular BIOS v4.51PG
BIOS ID: 11/18/1999-693-596-8671-2A6LGB09C-00
BIOS Date: 11/18/99
BIOS ROM Size: 256K
BIOS OEM Signon: VBE 1118A
Chipset: VIA 82C691 rev 6
Super I/O Chip: SMC 60x found at port 3F0h
Who can help?

Do you have the M6VBE with VIA 692 or VIA 693 chipset ?
>> This Bios is only for the 693 Version of the M6VBE
Or the M6VBE-A with VIA 693A chipset ?
Have you cleared CMOS and then loaded in Bios Setup/Performance Settings ?
If you have the correct Board then try to test with only one memory stick or with reduced memory timings

Then the Bios is correct

But for a 120GB HDD you'll need our patched Bios - maybe your problems came from the Bios interfering with your big HDD or the drive overlay software you might have used

denniss,
tried all what you´ve said,
-cleared CMOS and then loaded in Bios Setup/Performance Settings
-used only one memory stick
-used the patched Bios
but
120 GB HD only 32 GB recognized and
bluescreen with "IRQ_not_less_or_equal"?
what to try next?

Problem of the bluescreens solved. The "old" 20 GB HD drive wasn´t fully formated. Have bought another 120 GB HD and installed XP.
All seems to went right.... but.... now the PC breaks down without any message. Trying to update XP the PC breaks down and couldn´t get started.
Now I´m fed up with that m6vbe motherboard and bought a new one (intel D845PESV) and a P4 processor.
Now all went right...
I´ll keep you posted regarding the m6vbe problems. Hopefully I get this solved...
