Windows XP seeing 20Gb Hard drive as 2 Gb
LockedHere?s my problem. When installing XP Pro on my computer (EPOX 8RDA3 Mother Board) it only sees my hard drive as 2 Gb when actually it?s a 20 Gb IBM Hard drive. The Bios sees it as a 20 Gb. I can fdisk it at 20 and install win 98 with no problem. When I try to upgrade to XP it gives the error Unmountable_Boot_Volume. So I run fdisk and delete all primary, extended and logical drives. I install XP again and it still sees the drive as a 2 Gb drive. I?ve been over to Microsoft Support and tried the things they said but still can?t get it working. I?ve changed the 80-pin IDE cable; disabled UDMA set the drive to PIO mode 4. I’ve even low level formated the hard drive and booted the XP installation from the cd. Same thing XP only sees it as a 2 Gb drive.
Help Please
TIA
