Bios Upgrade or Use UDMA Controller card for PCChips M558 MB
Posted: Sun Jul 07, 2002 7:03 pm
I want to use a bigger capacity HHD like the Seagate 40 gb in my PCChips M558 MB with 233MMX CPU, VXPro II chipset and ALI M5113 A1 super I/O. I read in the various postings that I have to upgrade my AMI BIOS to accept a bigger HDD. I already downloaded AMIFlash from PCChips site and the 0421S-13.rom from ajz's site.
However, I saw the replies of Denniss and Rainbow to a post of pode1 dated Jun 03, 2002 that I can also use a UDMA controller card (like Promise Ultra 100) for my MB to accept a bigger HDD. DId I understand this correctly? I am new in this hardware thing and I may have misunderstood this.
Thanks for your help.
