Hey Jared,
Saw that you installed some 200gig harddrives and got them to work, what did you
do?
I'm having an issue with getting windows to see the full size of a western digitial
200gig drive. The bios sees the drive as being 200gig, set it up both manually and
with autodetect. However when I get into window it only sees the last partition.
I've tried to software that came with the HD, booted from the cd and I saw able
to see the entire 200gigs, and was able to partition the drive. But, again windows
would only see the last partition. I have SP 1 installed and really don't want to
install SP 2. Any suggestions ? Thanks.... RC
