OK, I loaded Fixup using IE because the formatting SUCKED for Communicator, and it wouldn't let me access the download in IE. But it loaded fine in Communicator. http://www.fixup.net/tips/20gb/20gb.htm http://www.fixup.net/download/wd/ - this is the EZBios image http://www.winimage.com/download.htm - here's where you get WinImage to create a floppy from the EZBios image. Remember, this will only work with WD and IBM drives, so if you don't have a Travelstar HD, you'll need to use EZBios on a desktop with a WD or IBM drive to get it to work (according to Xin's page).
