Need help finding SuperPower motherboard bios update

[FiDo14DiDo]

Anyone know where to look? Seems like their site is down (for a long time). Its a superpower mobo (SP-v586) with Award bios (4.51PG). The one I have is date '97. I'm trying to add a new HDD but this old bios is limits its size. Please help!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Unfortunately, I can't read Chinese, so I'm not sure the date on this BIOS, but you can find a BIOS for your motherboard at the very bottom of this page: http://www.hongen.com/pc/drvdown/bios/SuperPower.htm (look for V586a-a4.exe on the bottom left corner of the site...) 🙂

Anyone out there who can translate this site to make sure it's what Fido needs?

Also, many HD manufacturers provide special driver programs you can use to allow the use of hard drives larger than the BIOS can recognize. What brand of drive is it?

That link and the hongen.com link are the only ones that even work at Wim's Bios page. Good luck.

Got it...thanx fellas...its strange though how the v586a and v586b lead to the same link. I flashed it anyways, havent tried the new HD yet but things seem to be working fine so far. Thanx
