I am not opposed to going to CF, but I have no other computers that have a CF

That well known auction site lists CF->PC Card, CF->SATA, CF->laptop
40-pin IDE and CF->ATA adapters for p

Off hand, I wonder if the 486 doesn't support logical block addressing in the
BIOS (or its not enabled). Modern machines (and those of a Windows 95 vintage)
do not use CHS addressing (cylinder, head, sector) any longer
