I got a new PC not too long ago, and have waited to ask this.. don't know why. It has a 200gb HD but it only shows up as 127gb in Bios and in Windows.

Here's what i've done.

-Installed new service packs
-Installed Maxtor's big drive enabler
-Installed newer bios

Anyone experience the same problem with a Maxtor 200gb drive?
There should be a windows update to handle this. When given the option to do express or custom updates, choose custom (if you haven't already done so). When you get to the screen that shows the updates you'll likely find the culprit under "Software, Optional" There is a chance that it is under the high priority updates and you don't have automatic updates enabled, and/or didn't finish checking for updates after installing SP2.
