If I understand you correctly, the Hard disk Parameters includes:

Cylinders
Heads
Sectors
Start Address
End Address
Size

This is normally found on top of the hard drive itself. Failing that, if your BIOS has an autodetect facility, you won't need to be bothered by this. The computer will sort it out for you.
