You don't need an identical drive. The BIOS will determine how much the machine sees.
Make sure the BIOS has not been lost before you do anything else. For that age of machine (V1 software), I'd think the settings would be:
1024 cylinders
16 heads
65535 wpcom
0 lzone
50 sectors
If V2 software:
3303 cylinders
16 heads
65535 wpcom
0 lzone
63 sectors
(possibly set to LBA rather than Normal CHS)
Check the Hard drive isn't on some default drive type with unusual parameters. |
