[plug] BIOS update for VIA MVP3?

[Lyndon Kroker]

I have a not so old computer with an ASUS motherboard and an Athlon 500 MHz 
processor.  I bought a 40 gig drive but it wouldn't boot unless I set the 
jumper on the drive to limit the size to 32 GB.  After setting the limit to 
32 everything worked fine.

A friend of mine used them.  He said they had a nice little utility you could 
run that would give you all the info you need to order a new BIOS from the 
company.

Cheers,

Lyndon
