Title: SCSI_IDE_43.24 install
Post by: bjjones37 on February 24, 2013, 09:48:02 PM

I am trying to install this patch, but the instructions only tell you how to modify Startup-Sequence.  Okay, I got it, you have to specify the path. Will this patch enable hard drives larger than 4GB to work?

Yes, but only if you also use a file system which supports large harddrives.

And the boot partition has to be inside the first 4GB of the drive because before the patch is activated, larger harddrives are not supported.
