I've searched relentlessly for two days...
Is there any BIOS way I can use my 60GB IBM deskstar HDD?
There's an Ontrack Data International solution listed on the IBM website which I guess would be my last resort. This is my second last!
My BIOS Id is:
03/02/1999 - i440LX - CB652MLXC - 00.
I found one reference to this on the net suggesting it might
be a daewoo motherboard. I don't know if it is or not. I've searched for some daewoo support but can't seem to find a BIOS update.
Thanks!!

It's Daewoo CB652M-LX board. Get the latest BIOS "11/30/1999-i440LX-CB652MLXC-00" at
http://www.dwt.co.kr/computer/support/d ... d/BIOS.zip. It supports HDDs upto 64GB.

Thanks very much for the BIOS link.
I flashed the new BIOS, and successfully recognised the HDD - Yay!
----------
Now I have a problem which might or might not be related:
In Win98 I get "MS-Dos compatibility mode" problem for my HDD.
Tried everything I can find on the Microsoft site and various others...
I wonder if it might be BIOS / m/board related because when I shut down the system I get one long beep, followed by 5 short beeps.
What does this mean!?

I've seen that error several times already.
The usual fix is:
a) find out the maximum UDMA mode your motherboard supports (perhaps 33 or 66).
b) find out the current UDMA mode your HDD is set to. Go to the IBM site to download the pertinent utility
c) If your HDD is set to a mode (higher) your motherboard can't support, use the downloaded utility to drop it to the maximum your mobo supports.
d) That's usually it
PS: also check whether your motherboard has a SINGLE (master without slave) or MASTER WITH SLAVE jumper. Make sure it's set properly.

...which is NOT the Ontrack disc manager, btw, it's the feature utility.
For the benefit of other Google searchers ...
