As has been said earlier in the thread, the limit *has* been increased
over 132 Gb. There's the new 48 bit LBA that can go further than that.
But you need the newest OS/newest motherboard to use it.
BTW back at the time, there was several limits, 512 Mo for the "int 13"
access that Windows 3.1 was restricted to, 2 Gb per partition for Fat16
that early Win 95 was restricted to, and also an 8 Gb limit for some BIOSes.
