WD 320GB SATA, XP says 128GB :/

So i'm installing XP on my new rig, all going well, except it only seems to think my two 320GB disks are 128GB in size. it's an XP-SP1 install, anyone have any clues what could be causing this? A bios setting or some additional driver i need to load pre-windows setup?

Ah good call. The bios got the name right, but i didnt check for any physical size attribute. Or, i don't remember checking, in all the excitement at the thing actually booting i was somewhat elated and unfocussed.

As soon as it's done creating the 128GB partition (which i decided it might aswell do, and then i'll see what XP thinks is there when it's installed) i'll go back and check the bios. thanks!

BIOS is reporting it fine, guess i'll have to upgrade to SP2 or find a patch or something, unless anyone knows a direct solution.
