Scarecrow Man Posted July 18, 2005 Report Share Posted July 18, 2005 Why doesn't upgrading to SP2 fix it? I had a new seagate drive and I installed windows on it. I noticed it was only XP, so I immediatley grabbed my SP2 CD and upgraded. I thought SP2 automatically upgraded the drive to see the full capacity. Apparently not. So I used Seagates Tool to make a new partition out of the space that was missed by windows.I have a 200GB in my computer but it was installed post SP2.

korgg Posted July 18, 2005 Report Share Posted July 18, 2005 I said this somewhere else ... :) The maximum size for a NTFS partition is around 127GB .. And FAT32 around 30 GB .. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scarecrow Man Posted July 18, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 18, 2005 Yes yes... but it also depends on how you count your "bits and bytes" it could be 127, or 137 depending on how it is accounted for.Either way, the problem is easily solved, but I was just curious about it...
