Whats the brand name of your bios? you might be able to upgrade but Im telling you its very tricky you could fry your hole computer if you do it wrong
check google with the name of your bios (like my old computers bios is phenox and there is upgrades but there no good for the fact the bios chip I have is way too old.) Is this because you cant see all your HD space that your asking to upgrade your bios?

The Bios is AWARD- yr 1999

First, you have to check if your BIOS is can be upgrade. You need Flash ROM or EEPROM. If you don't have that, you cannot update your BIOS.
Second, flashing the BIOS is one of the most dangerous thing to do in the computer world because if you fail, your motherboard is only good for garbage. Only use if you're REALY need it.
When your computer boot up, press the Pause Button and check the first line on your screen for your Award Version and code.. Then check the last line at the bottom for the serial of your BIOS.
After, check http://www.google.com or check http://www.phoenix.com/PlatSS/pcplat...awardbios.html (If you're lazy)
Hope it help.
