ME install issue

[punisher1]

I am loading ME on a WD 120 GIG hd. When the load is complete it shows to be a 2 GIG hd. My goal is to install ME and the the XP upgrade that I purchased. But I can not with the capacity issue.

AMD 64 3200
1024 ram
WD 120 GIG SATA DRIVE

 

[N3051M]

what format did you use to put ME on? FAT32 or FAT16 etc?
did you use the windows installer format or a third party/manufacturer's app?
If you still run into troubles geting the full size, format one partition 20GB-30GB for windows, and the rest to keep your data in (leave it unformat untill you up winxp so you get ntfs support)

remember that the partitioning software when you format is in MB, so 1GB = 1024MB

Thanks,
I will fdisk and format tonight. When I tried the WD software it came back that no WD hard drive located.
