Hello,
looking for some advice regarding installation of harddrive. I own a
Epox 8k9a7i motherboard and have an uninstalled Western Digital Caviar
200GB hd (7200 rpm). I know there is a limitation of size... Please
tell me how to install this hd.
Thanks.

I have a 8KRA2+ and the mobo was not the problem, it was the software.
you'll need winXP with at least SP1 or even ,dare I say it, SP2 and then
this will recognise the full harddrive rather than 127GB.
as a last resort I had to install Win98 SE and let it use all the disc space
and then do an XP upgrade to make sure I got 155GB on my Maxtor 160GB drive.

HTH
