Hi, thanks for answering so fast.
that BIOS -File on the Maxdata ftp Server is only for MP 999 Mainboard
so i cannot use it for my mp 989 . The last update for MP 989 is V1702a.zip
File, but it dont work with a HD- size over 30 GB .
maybe you have an Idea what to do ?
Is it possible to patch that V17T02A File ?
ciao Markus
