Are some older mobos not compatible with the new larger HD's?

While my new rig I am building is under construction I wanted to put my WD 120gig in my 500mhz k6-2 setup but it will not boot up with the WD 120gig in it as slave. I've tried all kinds of settings in the bios that I thought might help but it just never boots. It recognizes the WD 120 at first when booting but later on it gets hungup. Any help would be appreciated!

No, a whole LOT of older mobos are not compatible with the new larger HD's. The PAG-2130 is an obsolete SUPER 7 motherboard for crying out loud, how big of a HDD do you think its going to support? Many BRAND NEW motherboards do not yet support 120GB HDD.

You'd be lucky to get a 80GB HDD to work natively on that dinosaur without an overlay utility.
