Recently, I've encountered some problems with my OS and had to reinstall windows. After I've reinstalled windows, my 2nd hdd (maxtor 300gb, connected as a slave, fat32) became unaccessible!!! Although it still appears in Disk Management (assigned with a letter), it only has a capacity of 128gb. The rest of the storage space is said to be unallocated. And when I try to access it, it says that the drive is not formatted and asks if I want to format it or not.

All my files are in that hdd (200 over gb), pls advise on how to recover it....

HELP!!!

Have you installed SP1 or SP2 yet? I think you at least need SP1 in order to see more than 128G.
