.... I have a GTW 1.6 GHz P4 running WIN2K SP4 (upgraded last week). I 
upgraded the BIOS w/ the latest thing I got from GTW this A.M. I then 
rebooted into WIN2K & tried to (re-)install my Samsung 2014N HDD (200 
GB, IDE100). When I did, all the OS saw was 127 GB, not the ~181 GB it 
should have. I flashed the BIOS specifically to allow larger HDD 
support, & the description on the GTW website specifically said that 
this flash would allow larger HDD's. I also upgraded to SP4 for the same 
reason :-). Why won't this box see the full HDD size ? TIA & have a 
happy labor day ....
