Unfortunately no. The only options on the table have been mentioned above (aside from replacing the motherboard). See the links as a reference.
The manufacturer disk usually does come with a diagnostics and partitioning utility, as well as the overlay software that was talked about. Only the overlay part would have a chance at getting around it, but at the sacrifice of other features.
