A lot of older bioses had limits on what size hard drive they could properly support. For example, a 386 computer would not normally handle more than 512MB. DOS itself is limited to 2GB maximum. Using a 5.4 GB drive? No idea what support you could expect. |

As I noted earlier, the real HD size is 5.0 GB. For some reason, BIOS "sees" a 249 MB more than HD really have. |
