HDD drivers larger that 137GB and Win98se

Will a P4PE work with a 200GB og 250GB S-ATA2 disk?
How big partitions can I use for WinXP SP2 with it?
(I use 2 x 40GB FAT32 partitions today and that works OK)

What about Win98se (have that bootable on one 40GB partition today)?
Is there any limit for the partition size to make Win98se start?

BTW: XP is on the 2nd partitions today. Is there any limit to the
start block of the partition for WinXP to start (I remember reading
somthing about this somewhere). It does start a 40GB today, so...

Does the P4PE have SATA on it? I didn't think so.

Some versions only. Mine has. A Promise Fasttrack RAID S-ATA controller.
I have a S-ATA disk on it today (but I think the IDE controller is faster).
