My 80 GB HDD is recognised as 32 GB HDD.

My hard drive is not recognised correctly even after the BIOS update (I updated it with ZX3C.bin, that I downloaded from http://wims.rainbow-software.org/edwin/).
At boot time System displays
04/19/1999-I440ZX-W977TF-2A69KSHCC-00
INTEL 440ZX P6ZX3 BIOS REV:C 128GB BETA,
but the BIOS GUI and its contents are same as the old version of BIOS.

Earlier old version of BIOS showed:
04/19/1999-I440ZX-W977TF-2A69KSHCC-00
INTEL 440ZX P6ZX3 BIOS REV:C

My problem is same as posted in the link(http://www.wimsbios.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=5681
), but the given solution doesn't worked out for my BIOS and HDD.

I also tried Auto detection of HDD after upgrading BIOS.

Is there any jumper settings to be done in HDD?

Please suggest me, how can I make my PC to recognise my HDD correctly.

Thanks,
Naushad.

Check your HDD manual (or use manufacturer website) how to remove the 32GB limitation jumper

I got my HDD detected correctly this time, by removing the jumper.
Thanks,
