I am using a Maxtor 91152D8. It is set up for LBA mode in the bios. The bios is set for 1401/255/63 and show 11524MB. The setup program shows 16383/16/63 and 8063MB. The partition part of the setup program show 1027/255/63. What should my bios disk geometry be set for? I would really like to be able to use all of the drive.
