Just to stop you posting a question asking how to FDisk your drive,

Click on the start button and choose run, type fdisk and press OK.

The FDisk screen will load and ask you if you want to enable large hard disk
support ? Select Yes.

A menu will appear, you need to change your fixeddisk drive, select "5",
then select 2. When the main menu re-appears select 1, then select "Y" to
create one large partition (if you want to partition into seperate
partitions have a search on the net for some more info or e-mail me
directly) After that you should be set to restart. When Windows restarts it
will show you a new drive (D:) and your CD-ROM will become (E:). Before you
can use the drive you need to format it, right click on the "D:" drive icon
in My Computer and select format, you will need to do a full format and then
you can do a scandisk to make sure the drive is OK.

Best Regards
