Here's my lilo.conf file and below is the problem I'm having

boot=/dev/hda
map=/boot/map
install=/boot/boot.b
default=linux
keytable=/boot/uk.klt
lba32
prompt
timeout=50
message=/boot/message
image=/boot/vmlinuz
        label=linux
        root=/dev/hda7
        append=" hdb=ide-scsi"
        read-only
image=/boot/vmlinuz
        label=failsafe
        root=/dev/hda7
        append=" hdb=ide-scsi failsafe"
        read-only
other=/dev/hda1
        label=windows
        table=/dev/hda
other=/dev/fd0
        label=floppy
        unsafe

I want to change this to boot into Windows by default, while I'm familairising
myself with Mandrake, and because the kids insist, but whether I do this in
Klilo or edit it myself in emacs and run /sbin/lilo I get the following error
message

warning: device 0x0307 exceeds 1204 cylinder limit
Fatal: geo_comp_addr: Cylinder number is too big (2991 > 1023)

Wgat does this mean and how can I get around it?
