I have recently acquired a broken down Olivetti M24 (AT&T 6300) which
apparently has numerous problems. I am currently looking at the hard 
disk which is not working. Since I currently cannot access the 
bios info on the motherboard, I have no information regarding the 
technical spec of the hard disk. 

It is an "Everex systems model No. HH725A" - does anybody know
anything about this disk - ie. capacity, no of sectors, heads etc.

I also think that the CRT card is blown - will another video adapter
plugged into the back-plane work instead of the Olivetti CRT controller (with
a different monitor of course)?

Any help or advice gratefully accepted...
