208650 2004-01-20 06:58:00 just bought a new hd and xp professional. when loading xp i was asked if i wanted to partition the drive, i chose yes and requested a partition of approximately half, now i only see half the drives size. how do i get the other half? do i use fdisk or some utility in xp?

Go here start-settings-control panel-administration tools-computer management and click on Disk management icon.
For your partition you cannot see, you will be able to now. Depending on what it says, just right click on it and choose what you want?
