BIOS for K7VAT - no details about when they were released, or what was fixed etc. http://web.archive.org/web/200206271...rd/s462/k7vat/ Links to manuals didn't get archived. This is the page, but there is no data to download. Similarly, many of the other web pages from the Lucky-Star site, have no image files stored with them - it makes the site impossible to read any more. http://web.archive.org/web/200206130...ainboard/s462/ You can get a manual here, if you want one. http://web.archive.org/web/200505260...4615/k7vat.pdf If you wish to use a large IDE hard drive, get one of these. Read the reviews - the product is not perfect. Make sure, before you buy it, that the OS you are using, is supported. I think I have one of these plugged into my old 440BX board.
