Installing a 200gb harddrive with windows 98se

Hi, I have a 200GB maxtor hardrive, which I want to use as a slave drive, and I have windows 98se installed on my computer. Can someone tell me how to install the harddrive with the full 200GB rather then limiting it to 137GB please.
I have a KG7 RAID Motherboard.

 

Be sure to check and see if you need a BIOS update for your MB to support a drive of that size. Windows 98SE will also need some sort of "drive overlay" usually available at your drive manufacturers website.

 

I already updated the bois.
At the maxtor website they have a program called Big Drive Enabler. But it says it is only compatible with Windows 2000 and Windows XP home/professional.

Since option one is out and solution 2 seem to be only for Intel based chip sets and your board I believe has a VIA chipset, it would seem that Option 3 an add in card might be the only answer. See if anyone else on the forum has other ideas.

 

you could just make the remaining space into a seperate partition.

 

I think i'll try that.
Thanks for your help.

 

What is the BIOS date of your current BIOS?

 

The BIOS Compile Date is 03/06/2003
Its the latest for my motherboard.

 

have you tried my suggestion if so how did it go?

 

It woulden't let me make a seperate partition with the remaining space.

 

damn. the only thing i can think of is checking microsoft for a fix or getting win XP with SP1.
