Pros:
It's pretty
Cons:
I no longer have access to 240 GB of my HD.

You didn't have a partition formatted with Fat32 did you? I know nothing about Vista yet, but maybe Fat32 is no longer supported...

I did NTFS

I am guessing you did a Fresh Install? Is the 240 missing a seperate Drive or Partition?

I made two partitions: 20 GB, 20 GB (for XP and Vista). The rest was unformatted and left alone. Then when I loaded data into the 240 GB section, Vista told me to format, I did...and now it's 20 GB...and that's it.

Nope. I'll just reformat the bloody drive and start over...maybe. I'm using Windows Memory Diagnostics Tool...woo hoo, hardware problems detected...aren't computers fun.

Yeah, it seems if I ramble on about my problems...I figure them out eventually. But what doesn't make sense is when if I never partitioned the drive...and had just one huge drive (as I've had on my other computers)...Windows recognizes it...I don't understand.

It may have been able to recognize it but could you write anything to it? You need to have a Partitioned Space for it to do anything with it. So the 240 was not Partitioned at all? You could have probably Did that within Computer Management in Vista...AttentionKMartShoppers wrote:Yeah, it seems if I ramble on about my problems...I figure them out eventually.

I should have told you to try that
