I have an IBM PC300GL, model number 6282-860 into which I am tryng to fit a MAxtor Fireball 3 40gb hard drive.
However, the bios only recognises 8056 mb.

I take it this needs a bios update?
OK, if so, how do I find out which motherboard / bios it is? Does anyone know?
Have tried looking for the bios numbers on startup as suggested elsewhere, this does not come up.
Have tried finding marking s on the moboard; cannot see any - although might be missing them!
Any help given would be appreciated!
Thankyou!
