Maximum hard disk support

yes your motherboard will support 250 GB SATA hard disk.

> maximum limit of graphics card ?

Whatever money that you can afford is your limit.

> maximum hard disk ?

2048 GB is over $200 -- how much disk-space do you need?????

The hard disk yes, the memory most likely no, the maximum that is supported with certainty is 1GB

If your motherboard has a SATA controller then you would not have any problems.

hi,
500GB is the maximum hard disk size for 865G motherboard.

problem not clear enough

Try first to reformat the 40 GIG hard drive that you have since it still detected under BIOS so hopefully that can still be reformatted and still work after that, but if still have the same problem this 40GIG hard drive may have alot of bad sectors already , Sorry to say but the 200 gig of sata drive wonto work for this motherboard since it doesn't support SATA drive , you can get a 1600GIG of IDE drive for this, this is teh complete specs of your motherboard

Hi prabhatkumar, your Intel motherboard's bios will see the drive. The question is will windows?
Do not use windows to setup the hard disk drive. Download the free bootable software for a floppy disk from the manufacture's web site. Boot the system to the floppy & format the drive. You'll be able to set the cluster size (Like windows would do) but the software from the manufacture is far better than windows. Any version of windows XP will see your total drive size. Just make sure the drive is seen while in the bios. (If it will be the primary drive make sure it is listed in the boot order).

Good day prabhatkumar!
Run into any issues just drop me a note.
Mike

see your motherboard's manual and see if its supported.

cheers

Hello all. I have the same issue. My MB is 845G [P4 2.4 Ghz] and SATA harddisk I need to install is Seagate 250 GB Baracuda with 3.0Gb/s interface, I belive which makes this HD as SATA II. So for this motherboard should I prefer PCI cards which support SATA II over the supports SATA I [these are cheaper].

Thanks so mcuh!!!
