Can't get Toshiba Laptop to see 30gb HD

[lotsip]

I have a Toshiba 30gb hard drive that I am trying to install in a
Toshiba 7010ct laptop. .It has a 4.3gb that the bios see and works
OK but the bios does not see 30gb at all.
Bios reports no hard drive and when I run disk manager it see's
nothing.
I Know CMS sells large hard drives for the 7010 so I know it should
work.
This hard drive works fine in an old 486 laptop, so I know the drive
is good.

Anyone know how to get this laptop to see this drive.

This sounds like you need an upgrade for the BIOS. I had similar problems,
but not with your particular model. I would contact the Toshiba support for
this type question, in case they may have a simple answer for your request.
