I have read the sticky regarding the 137GB barrier but I didn't see anywhere how to fix it after you have already installed windows XP. I have installed all the updates etc on my computer but still have unpartitioned space. Do I simply go into the boot disk for XP and partition the unallocated space through that or is there a different program that would do it through windows? Any help getting my space back would be great. BTW I have a SATA 2 seagate barracude 320GB HDD.

Cheers

PS If this needs to ber moved sorry bout the wrong spot to post..
 
You have to format the unallocated space, yes. You can do it with the Windows Disk management, or with a tool like Partition magic (costs money).
