Help! Please!

I've just put a new C: in my machine after the last one went kaputt, and the process has gone quite smoothly, however I noticed that the drive reports as being much smaller than I expected 130Gb rather than 250Gb. when I go into Disk Management there is 105Gb of unallocated space and the option to create a partition in that area, is it possible to add this space to my current C: partition and create one 250Gb drive or am I now stuck with two partitions?

Cheers

Sorted, looks like unless you have SP1 installed it won't recognise big HDs, had to dig out a copy of partition magic and make the C: expand to fill the space :)
