I have a computer that i recently built, the specs are:
2.66 Celeron D Proccessor
120 GB Western Digital SE Hard Drive
768 MB of Ram (3200)
128 Mb Radeon 9600 w/ TV Out
52x CDRW Drive
Windows XP Proffessional SP1 (OEM)
+ More....
If you need more on the specs ask...
Alright my problem is that when i was partitioning the hard drive the first time, to put Windows on it it would only let me partition off 31."" Gb for Window. The other space isnt partitioned at all. I was wondering if there is a way I can re partition it to get all 120 GB of space. I really want a way where all my current files will stay on the hard drive but if i have to reformat the whole hard drive i will... Thanks alot.
 
Try using a different partition editor. Knoppix contains a variety of partition editors and is always useful to have around. Create an NTFS partition with the unused space, and windows should see it and ask you to format it.

Good luck!
