1. ATA-100 drives will either fall back to ATA-66 or require a utility to force them to fall back. It shouldn't prevent the disk from being recognized, however, and your BIOS date suggests you have large HDD support.

2. Are you booting to a clean, DOS disk?
Flash your BIOS at your own risk.

yes, I've reboot with a dos disket, but if you can send me package of dos disket contents...
cause, with F8 key pushed and without check mode, it's always the same : memory insufficient

You can get boot disks from Bootdisk.com.

IIRC, Aopen uses a proprietary flasher? What version are you using? Have you checked their FAQ and emailed their tech support?
