wrong reported disk size
I installed a new Maxtor drive and formatted it with the cd-rom it came with to 138 gb. I then copied files over from the old 1.5 gb disk. And then did a repair install on the new drive to get it to boot. Everything works fine..both disks are FAT 32 and the os in win xp with sp1.
In windows volume info on the new disk it shows 138 gb, however with chkcks from cmd and right clicking on the icon in system it shows the same size disk as the one I copied from ie 1.5 gb. How do I get windows to recognize the full disk size. Do I change over to ntfs ???thanks
