BE6-II v2.0: Bios & Drivers for 200 gig HD?
I have a BE6-II v1.2 that I upgraded to a v2.0 with the 2.0.1024 oem BIOS
and drivers. What BIOS and driver version is required to recognize a 200 gig hard drive? I've already obtained some of the custom files from Mr. Geery's ftp site but do not no which version to use. Anyone? Thanks in advance, RH

to use that big of a drive without "helper" software, you will need to
update the Highpoint bios to 2.3x and then run the large drive off the Highpoint controller. you need to match the Highpoint bios version with the drivers at the OS level. -- Thomas Geery Network+ certified ftp://geerynet.d2g.com ftp://68.98.180.8 Abit Mirror ----- Cable modem IP This IP is dynamic so it *could* change!... over 113,000 FTP users served! ^^^^^^^ "Road Hair" wrote in message news:x9hSa.5873$Ne.5554@fed1read03...

Any preferences to a specific version? I'm already running my 3 drives (40,
80 & 200 gig) off the Highpoint controller and no raid.

well, if one of the files you got from my site is the mainboard bios with
the 2.32 or 2.34 Highpoint insert, then I would go with that. -- Thomas Geery Network+ certified ftp://geerynet.d2g.com ftp://68.98.180.8 Abit Mirror ----- Cable modem IP This IP is dynamic so it *could* change!... over 113,000 FTP users served! ^^^^^^^ "Road Hair" wrote in message news:F5iSa.5883$Ne.2463@fed1read03...
