40GB: 06/02/1999-i430TX-S672-ATC-5000C

I was just about to give up on this until I discovered this forum.
I am running the same BIOS that is listed as the latest on this site, but I got it from a French FTP server. I flashed this new BIOS before trying the 40GB drive. The BIOS will not detect it. Hard drive utilities will, EZ-BIOS will as well, but that is not compatible with XP or LINUX or Boot Magic. My last thought was a Promise ATA controller, I even send them a mail asking about compatibility.
Does anyone have an other BIOS that might help me?
Thank you,
Jim Verheul
