Trouble is the machine has an old AWARD bios, and runs a SETUP program from floppy [not from BIOS] which doesn't have any entry in its hard disk table that looks appropiate for the 251. It seems they only expected you to plug HDs up to 32Mbytes. I'll appreciate any input from anyone that has tackled this particular configuration. The obvious recourse of calling the company hasn't got me anywhere so far, I keep getting their answering service... And I really need to get this working! Thanks many. Roberto Gomez
