Solve : Hard Drive Ceiling? |
|
Answer» HI I have recently purchased a Seagate 320gbt HARD Drive. I am running WIndows XP Pro. My BIOS sees the Drive as 320 Gbt & I have used "LBA" mode. However, Windows only READS it as a 131gbt drive. Is there a ceiling on hard drive size with XP Pro, is there an extra driver I need to install on set up. is the drive faulty. I have TRIED installing as primary and secondary drive. Can anyone help. Many Thanks Kev P.S I would rather the drive was the primary! Excuse any typo'sDo you have SP2 installed?Nice catch, Deputy... Thanks. Also raises the question of the legality of said Windows installation . . .Let's not assume anything at this point.Yes Service pack 2 is installed. Hard Drive is showwing at reduced size before installation of Windows, infact at the partition & format of hard drive.If you got a copy of SeaTools with the drive, use that to set up the drive. If didn't get SeaTools, you can download from Seagate site. You will likely have to reinstall windows after setting up the drive. |
