Default 200GB hard drive is read as 131GB

You're running Windows ME (or at least you've posted in the WindowsME NG and
you can only format the drive in FAT32. To see a single partition of 200gb
you will have to upgrade to WindowsXP and use NTFS.

Alternatively format the drive into two or more partitions.

this? it is set up as primary slave rite now.
