Latest update. The BIOS update is a windows file and wouldn't run under DOS. I overwrote my PCLinuxOS with WinXP and updated the bios. Changed the drive to the 160 Gb but the new BIOS doesn't even think that there is a drive there, just like the old BIOS. And yet there are posts on the net saying that people have installed 160 Gb drives on the T42. Back to the drawing board. Thanks everybody George
Has the drive got any sort of jumper to set the size limit to 32GB or 128GB? Other than that does Linux see the drive?I guess failing that maybe stick your old drive back in and use the 160GB drive as an external drive with a USB case (not ideal but might be your only solution).
