Large (250GB) drive with GA-81EXP
I can't get this to work properly. It seems to be picked up in the BIOS,
and appears in the device manager but not as a drive letter. I have WXP with SP1 and it should work. Does anyone know if large drives are supported by this board. Thanks Alan LS |

Have you looked in Computer Manager under Disk Manager? The drive probably
needs formatting. Control Panel - Administrative Tools - Computer Management - Disk Management. Your new drive should be there. If you need instructions on formatting the disc, post back here and someone is bound to help. HTH - Tim "AlanLS" wrote in message ... I can't get this to work properly.
