I have a computer I'm working on that might need a BIOS update. I downloaded the ASUS BIOS update utility, aflash.exe and the newest BIOS from ASUS, d1008.ami. When I run aflash from a DOS bootable floppy, I get a "CANT FIND SYSTEM BIOS HOOK" error. The board is an ASUS P4S800D-E running a 2.8ghz P4 with Win XP Pro.
I'm updating the BIOS as a last ditch before telling him to replace the board. Here's the problem: When the guy boots into Windows, his 160 GB hard drive and his 200 GB hard drive show up as 31.4 GB and 95.6 GB respectively. I already pulled the 32 GB limit jumper off the 160 but that only affected the 200 GB drive as it went from 31.4 to 95.6. The BIOS setup screen says that it sees the drives as 160 and 200 GB drives but Windows differs. I installed SP2 to see if that did anything but it didn't.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
