PCBUILD Digest - 19 Jun 2001 to 20 Jun 2001 (#2001-172)I'm working with a Compaq 5100 (P100) machine and trying to install an additional hard drive.  I tried to install a Western Digital 20 gig drive, but "setup" misreported the size, and it wouldn't fdisk.  Anyone know if there's any 
bios limitations (I believe the machine's been updated with the latest setup files...) on hard disk size for this series of Compaq?   My emails to Compaq support have gone unanswered.....Please Help!!     Thanks!!!
