This site seems to have a range of files available for download
https://drivers.eu/Mainboards/Sapphire/PC-AM2RD580
There is a later (last?) BIOS available here

but the Sapphire Support forums apparently had reports that this version had a good chance of bricking the board to the extent that it wouldn't even boot.

If you find a way past the 3.5GB RAM limit on this board, please let me know!
All hail the Great Capacitor Brand Finder

@PC Hoarder Patrol thanks for the drivers, i will try bios ver. 2K061206 just to be safe not to brick the board.

@gdjacobs sorry for asking but did you try 64bit system? I run 32bit xp on my machine with 2x2gb and it only see 3.25gb with 2K061206 bios.

Have you tried Windows x32 2003 Enterprise Server? It may well see all 4.00 GB. I have it on my ASUS P5WDG2 WS Pro system and it sees all 8GB.
