CF Card only says 7279 mb on Retro board

[Greenslade]

CF is 64gb, but only shows up on my Retro board as 7279 mb? Formated NTFS.I did not think i would have any problem with a CF ,not like my SD Card adapter which i still have not been able to sort out.

What's the hardware? Could be a hardware limiation or possibly that the OS can't read NTFS properly, assuming it's Linux, maybe try FAT or FAT32, since memory cards have never used NTFS.

I changed it ro xfat.the board is
GA 7 VAXP Rev1 .
IDE Primary drive SDC FXS 064 G
I click that and then it says cap 7927mb ?
I have put another CF Card in there and that says the corect capasty
I am testing .it with H2TESTW,i am not sure if i tested with this when i got it.It looks like it want take that long.It is a seconed hand one.The one i put in the drive on the board its a new one.It is a industral one.

It is still saying the same thing.
Capacity 7927 MB

EXFAT is too modern, hence why I suggested FAT32 or FAT.
Does the entire 64 GB show up in the BIOS? If not, then the card isn't properly seen by the BIOS and nothing you do will matter.

So it seems like your BIOS doesn't like them, not much you can do about it.

Another thing was the two 64gb on the H2. APP could not do the whole of the disks it is usually only 1mb that it can,t do ,they both had about 100mb they could not do. i should have checked when i bought them.I will just stick with industral ones.They were both second hand.The other two were new

Formated at fat32 one of the 64gb ones still only shows 7927mb that must have been a dodge card.At the time i dod not know about the H2 App. At least the other 64gb which i got from the same seller shows 32gb ,so that can still be used all though half the amount it should be. Wheather or not that is the maximun it will see on the board is another thing. The other two 32gb ones show the correct amount ,but they are new. The 7927 mb will be good for dos ,will it be enough for 98?
