   Mine is a ST1144A seagate harddisk (125 Mb) and the BIOS is AMI.
   I need the following info in order to fix my hard-disk setup.

In the manual there are a "default" & a "other" to chose from
You should use the same one as you did before, or else you risk
losing you data. (I know thats a hard one!)
but try the default first, and if is does'nt work try the other
before writing to the disk.

				default		Other
      1) Sectors/Track		17		17
      2) Cylinders		1001		1024
      3) R/W Heads		15		14
      4) Pcomp  (what this?? )  0		0
      5) Wcomp  (what this?? )	0		0
      6) Lcomp  (what this?? )	0		0
      7) Formatted Mbytes	About 125 if i remember right

Good luck
