Can't get Abit BP6 to recognize WD 100 gig drive

Does anyone know how to get my Abit BP6 to recognize my new 100 gig WD drive? I'm trying to avoid using EZ-BIOS (included with the drive) because I'm trying to transfer my current drive (IBM 10 gig) partitions to the new drive using Powerquest Drive Image 5 but it won't let me do if the drive is using EZ-BIOS.

My drives are currently Fat32 under Win 2000. I'll be re-installing soon to NTFS, but for the time being, I want to transfer my partitions as-is.

Anyone have any suggestions?
 

Check Abit's site here to see if you have the latest BIOS and drivers for the motherboard (drivers for the Highpoint controller). If you have the latest BIOS and drivers and you can't detect the 100GB HDD with them, you'll have to add in another ATA100 controller card (Promise, Maxtor, etc) which should be able to detect the HDD or you'll have to use the EZ-BIOS.
