439716 2006-03-21 10:57:00 You need to service pack the operating system to at least sp1. Then the o/s will recognise the full drive SolMiester (139)

Have you tried using Seagate DiskWizard?
www.seagate.com
I had a similar problem and downloaded DiskWizard and my drive showed the full drive size.
Have a great day
