Go to

http://www.asus.com.tw/support/download/item.aspx?ModelName=P5A&Type=BIOS

Select Beta (instead of Release) and you will see there's a newer BIOS
available (1011-005, dated some time in 2002).  Amongst other issues,
it should fix support for disks larger than 32 GB (the latest Release
BIOS will hang during POST if a large disk is connected).  I'm running
an older BETA myself, 1010-001 IIRC.
