Guys

Will i be able to add 40 gb HDD to my mmx pc....

I dont mind it being detected as 40 gb...even if it detects 20 gb its fine with me.....

=================
Please dont get bashing as to wat i want from such ol pc
Old is gold....and i luv my first pc.....

I think you won't be able to go beyond 32gb.There's a jumper in seagate hdd's to limit to 32gb(if not detected by older bioses).

i guess that old pc will detect it as 8.4 GB and not more...

but you get fixes that load before windows loads and lets yuo access the remaining space even if the bios doesnt support...

or of not then you can always add an IDE or even newer SATA Card to PCI lot and do with greater capacity hard disks..

good luck
