Is that the mother board model or just the chipset model?
Bios updates are specific to the motherboard model and revision, and must be acquired from the maker of the mother board. The general class of bios known as Award 4.51pg was used on MANY motherboards with many different chipsets and setups. Same for the Intel 440BX chipset, Many different motherboards with many different BIOSes.

I like to add 40 GB Samsung HDD, but system not booting when connecting 40 gb HDD in Intel Pentium PIII motherboad with VIA chipset Bx98.
Kindly send me bios update.

Did anybody found the upgrade? I have got an asus motherboard with bios v4.51pg, and I want to use my maxtor 40GB HDD (D740X-6L).
Kind regards.
Rob

iT SEEMS LIKE YOU ARE VIEWING THE v4.51pg INFORMATION AS YOU BOOT UP YOUR COMPUTER. hOWEVER, YOU SHOULD GO INTO THE BIOS TO VIEW WHAT SORT OF MOTHERBOARD YOU ARE GOING TO FLASH. oTHERWISE LOOK ON THE ACTUAL MOTHERBOARD TO CONFIRM THE DETAILS. yOU DONT GET MUCH CHANCE TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM IF YOU STUFF UP THE FLASH. APART FROM BUYING A NEW MOTHERBOARD

Help!!!
Has anyone managed to find the BIOS upgrade to Award 4.51PG. I too have a 40G HD that cannot be detected byt he BIOS
Please help....

You can set the jumper on the 40 GB disk
so that only 4092 cylinders are used.
In my case (Maxtor 540X drive) this had as result that the autodetection of the Award bios 4.51PG worked for the drive.
The effect is however that the drive has only
33.8 GB of usable data, but that is still
a lot.Good luck
