After I have installed Windows XP it can't work with Seagate Medalist 4321 HDD(shows message "This hard drive isn't formatted" and doesn't allow to format it), but it works with WD 10.2Gb correctly and even with 800Mb HDD. I know you specialize on motherboard BIOS, and I am sure that motherboard BIOS has 32Gb limit bug, but I don't know how to solve it so I am asking you for help. Thanks very much
4.3GB: 09/09/98-i440LX-BD-2A69JD4YC
Is the HDD partitioned correctly

I assumed it was a typo, but it isn't. The Medalist 4321 (ST34321) is 4.3GB with UDMA/ATA33. I expect by then Seagate had sorted out their ATA implementation and were no longer having the issues with master/slave implementation?I don't think patching will solve this particular problem.
