syar2003 Posted January 28, 2006 Posted January 28, 2006 You have to use a xp cd with atleast sp1/or Sp2 incorporated to have all space at once. The original (1'st version) xp cd has the 130GB LBA limit. Other option is to install sp2 , then enter diskmanagement and partition the rest of the space as a new partition.

sapphire9800 Posted January 28, 2006 Posted January 28, 2006 i solved it by pressing f6 and loading the nvidia raid drivers and storage drivers, detected it as 238000mb instead of 131000mb which i believe is normal for a 250gb drive. Although i did read that angry games said not to use f6 if ur just using sata drive Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
