Hi ppl,
i hope somebody could help me:
A friend gave me his old 486 with a faulty harddisk, which i removed and 
inserted my very old, 170MB Connor Harddisk.
The problem which now occured is, that i don't know the BIOS settings 
(cylinders, head, etc.) for my connor harddisk, since i can't find any 
documentation for it -- i must have lost it :(( --

Could anybody make some suggestions which settings i have to make ?

TIA, Jeremy

Hallo,
ich habe ein kleines problem:
Ein Freund hat mir seinen alten 486 gegeben, der eine defekte Festplatte 
hatte. Die habe ich ausgebaut, meine steinalte  170 MB Connor Festplatte rein 
und bin am BIOS h�ngengeblieben, weil ich die entsprechenden Einstellungen 
(Cyl., head, sectors) etc. nicht kenne, weil ich Simpel alle Dokumentationen 
entweder verloren oder weggeschmissen habe.

Kennt jemand irgendeine Methode rauszufinden wie ich das jetzt machen kann?

Danke,
Jeremy
