[Ham-Computers] Question abt Hard drives

[George, W5YR]

First thing, Brian, is to find out if the BIOS of your computer will handle
hard drives larger than 2 GB. You can ask the computer maker or the maker
of your BIOS chip, probably on the Net. When the computer first starts
booting, go into SETUP and there you will find info on your BIOS and it HD
setups, etc.
