KT7A-Raid and new Maxtor 120Gb ata133 8Mb Cache problem

["Claude Leclerc" benquinremove]

Problem information:

The BIOS detect it correctly as a 120Gb drive but when I start fdisk, it sees only around 50Mb???

I already have a Maxtor 60Gb in my system and it's working OK with access to the full drive capacity.

On my old Abit Bh6 system, fdisk returns the correct information. I partitionned it there and it fails on the KT7A-R.

I tried it alone and with other drives on the RAID and standard IDE with no changes.

Any help appreciated before I decide to send it back.

old win9x ms fdisk displays size only up to 64gb correctly. if you have more capacity it is shown modulo 64.

get ms fdisk update or
