hi!

is there a patched bios for an Tyan Trinity 100 AT (S1590S) board?
http://tyan.com/support/html/b_s1590.html

the latest official update is from 1/26/00 (V1.16c 092399)
which i have already installed, but it only supports hard disks up to 36gb.

can anybody give me a hint?

thanks
d.

Code: Select all

BIOS ID string: 09/23/1999-VP3-586B-W877-2A5LET5CC-00
BIOS OEM string: TYAN TRINITY 100 AT  B1.16c 092399
INT13h Extensions...Present: new-style
=> BIOS already supports HDDs over 32GB!
Searching for size calculation routine...is already OK
Searching for SETUP size calculation routine...is already OK
BIOS already supports HDDs over 32GB & 64GB - Nothing to do!

Looks as though it should work with larger disks anyway.

No problem, 36GB is what it said on the website. The latest BIOS should support up to 137GB (128GiB).
