BIOS Updates forum

Hello,

I have a 40 GB IBM and a 120 GB maxtor.
Both HDD can not be reconized by the bios.

Program: Unicore BIOS Wizard Version 1.5
Program: Unicore Chip Detect v0.72 2000.03.10
BIOS Date: 10/20/98
BIOS Type: Award Modular BIOS v4.51PG
BIOS ID: 10/20/1998-i440BX-W977-2A69KM4GC-00
BIOS Eval: W6156ZXF1 V1.0 022299
Chipset: Intel 440BX/ZX rev 3
Superio: Winbond 977TF rev 0 found at port 3F0h

I don't know if the update runs on DOS or Windows.
So I need some information how to upgrade my bios.

I tried to find an update but never suceeded.
Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks and regards,

Vijay

Read the collected wisdom files or the main page FAQ how tu update Bios !
Biosfile should include readme file

Thank you Denniss but I still can't see my harddrive.
I have set the hardrive in "cable select" jumper configuration and when I start "fdisk" the program see only 19 GB. My harddrive has a capacity of 120 GB.

Here is my bios update info:
Program: Unicore BIOS Agent Version 1.8
BIOS Date: 07/27/00
BIOS Type: Award Modular BIOS v4.51PG
BIOS ID: 07/27/2000-i440ZX-W977-2A69KM4GC
BIOS Eval: W6156ZXMS V1.6 100900
Chipset: Intel 440BX/ZX rev 3
Superio: Winbond 977TF rev 0 found at port 3F0h

Please help me. What do I wrong??

With kind regards,

Vijay

Strange.... our utility displays "BIOS already supports HDDs over 32GB & 64GB"

Are you using Autodetect or are you setting the HDD parameters manually?

Do you have the right cables to use cable select ? Try setting master/slave instead.

and when I start "fdisk" the program see only 19 GB. My harddrive has a capacity of 120 GB.

What OS ? If W98, look at Microsoft: FDISK limitations on drives >64Gb.
