Umm yea sure. Let me just use my telapathic powers to see what bios version and motherboard you have....lol
You need to provide us with more information on the motherboard.

get into motherboard-->motherboard and take a screenshot
while its highly possible a bios update will resolve it , its never a sure thing , so if it wont resolve it youll have to get an ide controller card and in that case better stick to *promise* (the best manufacturer of those)

youll have to get an ide controller card or a new pc (i think its about time,dont you?) , a bios update wont cut it in your case , apparently there have been 2 revisions of that mobo first one with ami bios (what you got) and second with award bios ,the second bios history looks promising with big hd support but the first one doesnt look promising at all only 1.0 & 1.1 and wanna know what the changelog is? only this "Change the bootup screen from "Katmai(r) CPU" to "Pentium(r) III CPU""
