I'd think that your ancient Tyan m/b's bios can not deal with a big drive.
IIRC what the bios sees is processed and handed off to Windoz at boot.
Does the bios allow LBA addressing?

I have an ancient Tyan S1854 motherboard and I put a 320GB HD in it. The
BIOS recognizes it as being 132MB, and Windows Explorer says it's a 128GB
partition, but diskpart says it's a 310GB partition. Is Explorer simply
showing me an incorrect lower number, or is diskpart wrong?
