My 250 gig hard drive is only reading at around 137 gigs total. There is this huge partitioned block of it unused and I don't know how to fix it. I've heard getting the XP SP's would help. Right now I am running XP pro. with SP 2 but still nothing. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Does the bios report the correct drive size?
