| No problem I also have a Asus P2B. Now I use a 120GB Maxtor 5400rpm without any problem. First I had some problems, but after updating to bios 1004beta3 they were gone. Old versions from microsoft fdisk don’t work with large drives (even from windows98se)! I used Partition magic 7 to partition and format. If you want to use Windows 98 with a drive larger than 64GB you need this update: http://support.microsoft.com/default...EN-US;Q263044& This package also contains an updated fdisk.exe (you can use WinRAR or Winzip to extract fdisk.98x and rename it to fdisk.exe) Or install it on a Windows 98 system. Good luck, Waldo Monster |

| Even larger? I thought 137GB will be the next barrier. Who has expressions with a 160GB or larger drive on an Asus P2B? I mean the primary master not a second drive! //edit (thread merged) //end of edit// Last edited by Mr. Belvedere; 24-09-2002 at 08:16. |

| Re: ASUS P2B and 80 GB HDD If you have this system still You have the latest bios installed which gives you capabilities for harddrives over 65 gb - also can i recomend that you set the cpu to 100 mhz and set the other jumper to 4.5 which will turn your system to 450 mhz i ran mine this way for 4 years with no problems - but i picked up a 500 mhz pIII for free so i dont use the other one now Quote:
