I have used many of these cards very successfully for boosting old motherboards (with only UDMA 33 or 66) to make Ubuntu servers and desktops (with UDMA-100 drives in RAID-0 arrays), unfortunately for this thread I have not tried them on XP

Solely for running HDs without size limit and at full practical speed (I think!)
@purleigh,
Thanks for reference. The paperwork that I have stops short at Win 2000, hence my query. I have downloaded the driver from the ref just in case my floppy with the board is of an earlier vintage. I am in the process of shifting XP into a 160GB IDE Drive, a subject of another thread, and then hoping to replace the 8GB with another 160GB to give me some more flexibility (? putting Linux on it?)

then go to "Drivers Home"
enter the "Service Tag" details printed on your machine
you can then get access to the drivers and BIOS updates available specifically for your machine.
In that section you can look at each available BIOS update by clicking on the relevant "File title" link, and view a list of "Fixes and enhancements" for each release

Followed your links but they do not quite allow for the older versions of BIOS's unless I did not find the proper route. However I did manage to get to making a post to their Forum, which I had not before. Must have tried too soon after registering. I will await results, it is 4 am in USA right now so will look tomorrow.
We seem to have got off topica bit, if a Mod wants to shift us I will start afresh if advised.
