Thank you Fred Nielson and everybody else that has been so kind to answer, I don't know if I explain my self but here it goes again. I had a drive size 1.99GB but it wasn't big enough for me so I decided to buy a 20 GB hard drive I was running windows 98 but when I got the new drive I took the other one out and installed the 20 GB hard drive, I partitioned the new drive and formatted , when I boot up it reads the model number of the 20 GB drive, I installed Windows ME, but when I go to control panel system it tells me that the drive is only 1.99Gb.
I am running Windows ME
The drive is IBM model number IC35L020AVVN07-0 Capacity 20GB
Processor Type Pentium with MMX (CT) Technology
Processor speed 200MHZ
Cache ram 512 KB
Total memory 64MB
Bios 4A3NT0X0.05A.0020.P05
Primary IDE IC35L020AVVN07-0
Primary slave none
Secondary IDE Master Sony CD-RW CRX19501
Secondary IDE slave none
This is the system information that comes up when I am booting up and press F2. I think this is more detail then last time, I am going to format and partition everything again but I want to know if any one has other solution, I was told to buy a ATA PCI hard drive controler that has its own BIOS I don't have the 1.99Gb hard drive installed anymore, I just want to have the 20GB hard drive, my skilled level begginer.
Thank you to everybody that take time to answer, I am very grateful
