VERY often, the "last" bios, posted by a maunfacturer could contain
support larger hard-disks, than the sometimes "much" earlier bios that was
on the board when it was shipped !

VERY often, when the maunfacturer no longer lists the board, much less
provides the
" "last" bios ", the board is it is obsolete.

I cant find the driver anywhere not even the Jetway homepage can anyone
please help me fix this problem

thank you very much i appreciate all your kindness

BIOS = Basic Input / Output System
e.g. BIOS is *not* a "driver".
Of course you can not find a modern BIOS for your MoBo --
your MoBo is 4 years 7 months old; it is obsolete; it is an antique.
Put the MoBo in a museum.
