BIOS Updates forum

Been looking everywhere for my BIOS update but keep getting conflicting report's
Decided to come in from the cold, asked for expert advice & was told you guy's are having a success rate with these BIOS's
Standard issue, I've had a 40gig hdd but can only see 32, wanting to buy another hdd but it's pointless if all I'm going to access is another 32gig
I've tried On-Track & Ezi-Bios, but they create more head-ache's than what it's worth (partitioning & dual booting issues)
I've done a search of your forum & seen similar to mine, but not exact
As you'll appreciate, flashing isn't something to be done willy-nilly (especially @ the local park

), so if possible please, could someone say 'Yep, this is it' or 'Here it is'
I do understand that there are NO guarantee's here, but a reputation speaks volums to me

TYI

Hey, relax, we're not a 24-7 help desk, ya know.

Ok, first, have you had any luck at the A-Trend website?

My apologies soupy, I seen other post's after mine being answered & I've been looking for this flash for awhile now, I guess I just got impatient, no excuse though really

Thank you Rainbow, it'll take me a couple of day's to backup my *junk*
As soon as I've tried it, I'll post one way or another

Thank you, the flash worked

Still unable to see the xtra 8gig however, so I've decided to look around for 2 x 20gig hdd's & be content with that
