Hi:
I wrote Asus gave them the serial number and name of my motherboard-- --they
gave me the right bios--for my motherboard they were extremely helpful I
must say. I got the utility that will back up your the old bios just
incase I backed it up on a floppy--and don't forget to mark it and I put
the new bios on a different floppy too-- , You need to be careful make
sure you get the right one. I flashed the bios many times but I always took
my time to make sure I had the right one and followed the directions. Once
I did that it took care of the hard drive storage problems. All my devices
were in order and yellow astericks were gone. You need to download SP3 and
install it, Make your system partitions NTFS as for me I am also running
Windows 2003 server too. I left you an url-- the last email, check it out.
I have been running Windows 2000 pro SP3 for 2 years. I must say I have
been quite happy with it. Jackie

Good advice is like good paint- it only works if applied.
