Default Changing HD from presario 1200

Hello,
one question, how can I open the Presario to change the harddisk for a
bigger one.
Maybe through the keyboard ?? A picture would be nice.
And how big could it be 32Gbytes ?
I bought the 1200 second hand in usa.
Thanks for answers.

Which 1200? There are dozens in the 1200 series. If your 1200 has a HD less
than 8 GB in size, there may be a HD size limit in the BIOS.
