I installed on this system a fresh install of XP, did all the updates and got everything up to snuff. My HDD was shown at 137gb and I saw the unpartitioned 23gb. I can partition it and use it as another drive but that's not what I want. I want XP to recognize it as 160gb the first time I do a fresh install so that I only have one hard drive. How do I go about doing this? Getting SP1 installed is useless if it gets formatted during XP setup, so what's the point? I've tried doing a repair and that didn't work either.
Basically, I want all 160gb on C drive. I have an Abit IC7-G mobo.
