        Hello, I am planning to install a 13GB hard drive into my system and have a
small question. I have heard of a 8.4GB limit some older BIOSes have, does
this limit exist? I will be installing Win95B with FAT32 support so
partition size won't be a problem. The motherboard used is an ASUSTVP4
Socket 7 board, latest BIOS (I think it's late 97 early 98). Does anybody
know where this limit stems from and workarounds to it if my board indeed
has the limit? Thanks alot, TTYAL
