I am trying to help a friend install a hard drive in a system with a IBM
200+ ( Cyrix ). The problem is that the drive which is a Maxtor 1.2 GB hard
drive and the CMOS when trying to auto detect is telling me that it is 9945
in size instead of 1260. The drive did work properly before but now seems to
be misrepresenting the size in autodetect. I have been to Maxtors homepage
and there are no troubleshooting tips that relate to this type of
problem....  HELPP!!!!!!!!
