如果有人裝過的話不知道可不可以教一下

鵝看了一下MSI的網頁5169的BIOS最新版到2000年為止(BTW,跟PCB的版本也有關:p),2000年的BIOS通常能support到128GB的HD(BTW,受限於TX的IDE只有UDMA2可用,不過差距應該不大吧:p),直接用onboard IDE會比較省事,亦或是新HD不當開機碟時其實不用理ACARD的說明(BTW,XP中文版的安裝畫面應該也是中文的,其實沒那麼困難吧:p),只要用原HD正常開機後新增硬體即可:p....

之前我也有一塊5169, 有接過40G的硬碟, 但是Auto-detect會失敗, 死當在BIOS那裡.不過手動設定cylinder那些參數後就沒有問題了.如果不能自動抓到的話,可以先拿到別臺電腦抓一抓參數再手動設定.
