Hi Guys.. i bought a Maxtor 250 GB hard drive recently and installed it as the c: master single drive. I installed an old copy of xp pro on it and the OS reports it as a 127GB drive. In Bios it correctly identifies it as 250GB. I went to Maxtors website and they regonised the issue. They said upgrade to XP SP2 and download thier large capacity drive enabler. So i upgraded but when i tried to run the drive enabler it said that large drive support is already installed on my PC. hmmmm, two questions, 1. how do i fix it? - well actually, do you think if i slaved the drive and formatted it, windows will recognise the full size. 2. during installation of the original windows installation, would it have been possible that windows created a smaller partition? It did ask me if i wanted to create a partition in the unpartitioned drive but only reported the dive size as 127 GB and i used 100% of it. Perhaps thats the issue. Now that i have upgraded to SP2, perhaps i should remove the 127GB partition and try adding a new one and perhaps XP will regognise the whole lot. any thoughts?
