access to BIOS of DECpc

I've used a copy of Ontrack Disk Manager (~version 4?) from Seagate and it works with any brand drive. If you still need it, I can dig it out when I'm home in a couple of weeks and image it. I believe it will work with any settings in the BIOS, although it does recommend certain ones. T.H.x.

Alas, there is no field to change the hard drive parameters nor the type! The disk manager was a good idea, I have one old 486 PC with a big Western Digital drive, too big to be supported by the BIOS, and the EZ-DRIVE disk manager works perfectly here. However, EZ-DRIVE only accepts to work with Western Digital drives, and the 2.5" hard disk that I have is from HP. The disk manager also wants certain settings for the hard disk in the BIOS ... Still not giving up / one more try: could somebody point me to a site that has a non-commercial disk manager (for HP or not restricted to specific HDDs) or even better e-mail a ZIP with such disk manager?
