HDD capacity is wrong =/

[Dr.Gootch]

My harddrive is a 160gig and windows show it as a 127gig. I got windows xp PRO updated completely full.

 

[anarchon]

that's because xp needs to support 48-bit LBA
Without it windows cannot manage this size.

correction : only if you don't have sp 1

 

[Dr.Gootch]

I had this with my 250Gb hdd all you need to do is download sumthin like partition magic and remove the partition.
