Hi, I have a DECpc LPv+ 466d2 pc. I want to add a large hard drive to it but I don't know if the BIOS will support it. The BIOS rev is 1.01.02 and has never been upgraded. Does anyone know if it will support a large (2gb) drive ? If not, does anyone know how to go about upgrading it ? I also want to bring it up to 32 mb of memory from the 16mb that it currently has. Right now all four of the memory slots are full. Do I have to add new memory in pairs or anything like that ? What type of simms does this pc require ? What about adding an overdrive processor to it ? Thanks for any help/info you can provide. -joe [Posted by WWW Notes gateway]

Thanks Owen. Those specs were very helpful. It looks like the largest supported drive is 500Mb... I guess I need to track down a bios upgrade now. -joe | |||||
