    Junker,

    If you have no type 47, or User Defined option available to you in bios hd setup, then you may have to resort to using Ez-bios (I hate to say that). Go here and following the directions under "EIDE Drives Greater than 2.1 GB", starting at step 2.

    Please remember to post back whether your problem is resolved or
    not, so that others may gain from the knowledge.

    DrMDJ, Went there, didn't find EZbios, got referred to their Data Lifeguard system, dld'd the tools. I'm going to try that. If it doesn't work this time I'll be back with a new post "packard HELL" I think I'm gonna go price a new MoBo, but- stubborn me - I'd still like to whip this.
