Hi,
I have a Presario 80XL4 laptop and it's time to switch out the hard
drive. I just got a 40 gig hd but the auto-detect stalls during boot.
I thought it might be the BIOS but it turns out the latest update is
March 2001 and the laptop already has it.

Is there a size limit? The unit comes with a 20 gig drive and I was
hoping to upgrade it.


TIA,

kg
