It's SuperPower SP-7BL board. I can't find any BIOS online - only some references showing that A.2 was probably the latest version.
If you want support for HDDs over 32GB, save your current BIOS to a file and send it to my e-mail - I can patch it for you.

The file came damaged - please send it once again, this time ZIPped. The patched BIOS will be same as your current, only difference is that it will not freeze when detecting HDDs over 32GB.
The TNT card should work without any problems.

Some LX boards had issues with TNT2 cards. The problem stems from the LX chipset's inability to feed the AGP 2x cards enough power to sustain good health.
Flash your BIOS at your own risk.

It's a bug in UniFlash :roll: It saves only 128KB even when the Flash ROM is 256KB when using -save command-line parameter... Will be fixed in next version.
I send patched BIOS to you.
