I just bought a 80 Gig Western Digital Drive and after installing it, my BIOS and WIN XP recognize it as a 32 Gig drive. After searching all over the web for answers, I've come to realize that I need to upgrade my BIOS. The only issue is that I can't seem to find a BIN file that matches my board. Any help would be great.

Program: eSupport.com BIOS Agent Version 3.21
BIOS Date: 05/15/02
BIOS Type: Phoenix-Award BIOS v6.00PG
BIOS ID: 05/15/2002-P4M266-8233-6A6LWJ19C
OEM Sign-On: MB_FPMFMP4 G03 05-15-2002
Chipset: VIA 82C3148 rev 0

Superio: Winbond 697HF rev 6 found at port 2Eh
OS: WinXP
CPU: Intel Pentium(R) 4 1600 Mhz MAX: 1500 Mhz
BIOS ROM In Socket: Yes
BIOS ROM Size: 256K

The board is a Jetway board, remanufactured by Future Power. The Future Power website has no info regarding motherboards, and I can't make a match on the Jetway site. Thanks in advance for your help.

That BIOS must support HDDs at least up to 128GB. Make sure you have the HDD jumpers configured correctly.

Thanks, I'll double check the jumper settings again and see if that works. As for the BIOS upgrade, I'd still like to Flash it to the newest version.
