All i do is seem to post posts for help, but when its my first pc i have EVER custom built what do u expect lol!

I installed Windows XP onto my Maxtor 80GB hdd last week. This week i had a look at the C: and it said Max Space: 30GB, Free Space: 10GB.

I then remembered when i was installing this it came up with like a partition option as i was installing windows and not sure if i did it correctly or only partitioned about 30GB.

Basically to get back my 50GB will i need to reinstall windows and check when i go to the partition option to make it the whole HDD

Any advice would be good :)

Thanks,
Chris
 
So basically it will show 2 drives in My Computer?

How do i get it to be on 1 with windows though?

Sorry just relealised what i sad there lol ^^

So basically just rename the rest of the drive say (F:) and if i run out of space on the C: just install stuff to the (F:)?

Will the other partition have windows on it already or is it just a drive ?
