Hi,

I have a 320GB Hard drive and I bought a new MB installed it, it was recognizing it before then I reinstalled Windows XP but now only shows 120GB. When I go thru bios still shows 320Gb and same thing when I go thru bootdisk. How can I fix this, please help 120gb is not enuff :(

Thankyou
 
What version of XP is it? Does it not have the Service Packs installed? If not, you might be experiencing the "137GB barrier" that was a limitation. Like heyman said, you should try going to http://update.microsoft.com and updating your Windows.
 
1. You need a legit copy of windows.
2. You need SP2 and related stuff.
Just buy a legit copy of XP (or if you have the money and a good comp, Vista) and reinstall again.
Remember the Forum Rules.
 
i have xp sp2 at home ill just buy the serial number....can i just install on top of the other windows or should i format it and doit over...it doesnt matter to me cuz there no data in that drive which is valueable to me for now
 
i had that installed but i took it off cuz its not letting me go into my other HD which has all my data stored, what can i do for that
