I have an old Pentium 100MHz on an PH5 motherboard, and its BIOS is Award 4.50PG (ID string: 10/04/95-SiS-5511-5513-2A5IDA19C-4F)
I need update BIOS, where and how?

good old trusty ABIT PH5.

get a bios update here
and the manual here
ABiT has archived bios updates even for those very old mainboards. Thank you ABiT for this kind of support!

you need the PH5D9 as that is the only one with the same 2A5IDA19C string (the other have CC or EC instead of 9C).

Harddisk support is only up to 8GB! Cannot be patched.

thanks for the additional info, edwin. i didn't take a look at those files.

if you want to use HDDs larger than the size edwin stated you'd better use Linux or Windows XP, but i doubt that WiXP would install on a machine like that.
