i bought a new maxtor hdd 40GB but my bois does not support
such large hdd. Too bad i knew this after i have bought my
hdd. Then i dig up and knew that i could use maxblast 3.
All those went fine until i am trying to start windows
after completing the WIN98 setup. It prompt windows
protection error, please restart your computer. Anyone had
experince this situation ? Please comment and another thing
i am running on old AMD machine using Amibios. Is it
recomended to update the BIOS in order to use my 40GB hdd ?
