After a previous video of flashing Mr. BIOS onto my Packard Bell Platinum 2220's PB685 Orlando motherboard I wanted to upgrade from the 4GB CompactFlash I was using in it previously. One of the reasons for the BIOS upgrade was the support of LBA28 (28-bit Logical Block Addressing) which enabled hard disks with an addressable capacity up to ~137GB (~127GB formatted usable).

Partition Commander (made by VCOM) was a GUI-based partitioning software for back in the day to provide a more user-friendly and feature-rich environment for HDD partitioning.
