I have a new 160 gig hard drive.
Windows 2000 pro SP4

How do I get Windows to see it????

Bios is updated. Motherboard Does support it.

Be sure to read the "Status" section and make the appropriate
registry changes.

FAT32 volumes have a practical limit of 127.5GB. If you want
the entire drive to be a single volume make sure you're formatting
it as NTFS.
