Today I replaced my 40GB hard drive with a new 80GB one.
While it is correctly shown as 80GB in the bios, windows
shows it as 64GB! How do I get windows to correctly
identify it?
cheers

Any ideas on why my DVD drive (functionally my CD drive) isn't visible in

program you have, uand/u turn off both your screen
saver and your energy saver. If you don't know how to do
these things, let us know. Someone will guide you through
it.
