Ok, have had an absoloute litinay of problems with trying to recover from an issue on my PC, and the latest is that evidently my hard drive died. I bought a new hard drive and installed Windows on a smaller one just so I can get it booted up. I have the new drive installed in my computer (a 500GB WD), and it shows up just fine in the bios and in device manager. When I open Windows Exploerer, though, it doesn't show up. When I go into "Computer Management" I see a 2nd drive but it says the max size is 128GB. Is this a limitation on my hardware? It's an older computer, but I do have a 250GB exteranl drive it recognizes.
Does anyone have any sggestions on my latest mess?
