I have a quite old computer with an A-trend ATC-1020 mainboard and I'd like to install new IBM HDD with 40gb capacity. Unfortunately it sees it as 8gb all the the time I checked all the net but I couldn't find anything that could help me. I found a patch for atc 1000+ which has this same number on bottom boot screen, but i don't know if it will works...

40GB: ATC-1020
The latest ATC-1020 BIOS does not support HDDs over 8.4GB:
04/28/97-i430VX-2A59GA29C-00
ATC-1020 BIOS VER1.3 003
The ATC-1020+ does:
09/24/97-i430VX-2A59GA29C-00
ATC-1020+ BIOS VER:1.3 06
04/28/97-i430VX-2A59GA29C-00
ATC-1020 BIOS VER1.3 003
The ATC-1020+ does:
09/24/97-i430VX-2A59GA29C-00
ATC-1020+ BIOS VER:1.3 06

If your board is 1020 (not 1020+), flashing 1020+ BIOS might kill it.
