help breaking 32gb barrier
Posted: Mon Apr 23, 2007 9:49 am
Hello there, I recently got an extra 400GB HDD for a friends PC but it only formats to around 32GB.
I ran the AMIBIOS Motherboard Identification Utility and got the following results:
BIOS String info:

Is there any way to get it to the 137GB mark and if so am i able to utilize the entire 400GB by partitioning?
