I just finished building my first DIY PC. When installing Windoze (I know.. but it is a gaming system), my 250Gig HD shows up as only 131070MB of free space to partition. I know that the A8N-E can see the HD on the primary SATA as a 250G unit in the BIOS. What gives?

Did you use the drivers for the HD? Sometimes this happens when you don't. (You use them by pressing F6 I believe when starting a Windows install and you'll need a floppy drive)
