- Hi !
-
- A friend of mine has a little problem.
- The Setup of his AT entry for his Maxtor HD was set wrong, so
- the Computer was not able to start. Then he wanted to set the original
- entry, but he didn`t know.
- He look in the Setup-Info, but all the Information he has about his HD
- is not enough to set the right value.
-
- All he knows about his Harddisk is :
-
- It's a Maxtor Model 805/A with 5 Heads and 17 Sectors, and he
- needs the number of cylinders, the write precomp. and finally
- the landing zone.
-
- Is someone out there with the same HD ? The shop where he bought the
- computer can`t tell him the right setting. (A problem, when buying a
- Computer at an discounter. Cheap price, no service ! )
-
- Please respond via E-Mail, directly to me, because I usually don`t
- read this newsgroup.
-
- Thanks !
-
