Bios Executable

BTW is there anyway to skip/bypass memory check, or make it as fast as modern computers?

The 3.6 and 3.7 Bios should not have any problem with a 40GB HDD but may have soem problems with 80GB or bigger - I have a 3.83 Beta which is known to be working up to 120GB HDD

What's exactly your problem with your HDD ?
32GB limitation clip removed ?

BTW can send me your beta?
