Howdy folks,
The ~60GB HD boot drive (C on my Windows XP machine failed. Installed a new Western Digital 300GB EIDE drive and then restored a full backup of the old drive, with the OS. The machine boots and works properly, except that Windows reports the capacity of the new drive as ~60GB (even though Device Manager sees the new drive's model number). BIOS sees the full ~300GB, as does EASEUS Partition Manager. How can I get XP to see and use the entire ~300GB? -- ZigZag '58
