Re: int 0x13 utility



On Sun, 30 Mar 2008 15:45:39 -0400, I waved a wand and this message
magically appears in front of Rod Pemberton:

I didn't use Win95 much either. I'm still having a problem
determining specifically which Win95 version added LBA for FAT32.
Most sources say Win95b (since FDISK added support for partition type
0x0C), but some say Win95c... I haven't been able to find a
(reputable) source with version numbers (e.g., 4.00.1111 or
4.03.1214, etc) that indicates which was the first with LBA support
for FAT32. Still working on tracking it down...

I can find that out for you since I've got three different versions of
Windows 9x CDs; which I will try and install on my SATA hard disk with
that crippled BIOS. If it creates partitions bigger than 504MB, it's
got LBA built in. Watch this space!
