Looks like an Atrend board.

Just a matter of accessing their web site or FTP site, and then matching the BIOS image up correctly before downloading anything.

I'd say a board based on the LX chipset will likely require a BIOS upgrade to access an 80GB HDD correctly unless you are already running a recent or current BIOS.

Yes, its an Atrend board.
But I couldn't find their web site or ftp.
Can you please point me to the right place to get the BIOS update?
Thank you.

I just went into the BIOS Upgrades section from the main Wim's BIOS page, and there were FTP links there, but they did not work for me.

I am not familiar with Wim's web presence otherwise.

Alternatively, if you check posts by some members such as Nick or Rainbow, they have links to patched BIOSs, which are use at your own risk. There may or may not be a patched BIOS for your board.

Current patched version was only to get rid of the 32GB bug.
A new version (A-Trend ATC6130 to 128GB).zip will be at the "untested" link in my signature shortly...

Looking forward to your new version.
Thank you.

Sorry for the delay, sometimes work gets in the way!

Sorry my last post should have read that " I am not familiar with ATrend's web presence"; NOT Wim's web presence.
