Default [Fixed] Missing over 150gig on my hd
I just upgraded my computer with a new Motherboard, cpu, and ram. Then i installed my windows xp pro without sp2 or sp1 but for some reason windows sees my 320gig harddrive as only 126gigs. I know they have different definitions for gig on the box and gig on the computer but the missing space on this is rather extreme....

I installed windows xp pro on a amd x2 4400 cpu. Will the dual core have any effects on the size of the harddrive space?

Hi there,

You will need to upgrade to Service Pack 1 or higher. Incidentally, what is the make and model of the hard drive?
