Dear all;

I bought a new 6,4 GB Western Digital HDD.

I couldn't use the complete of HDD space. Dos said that I have only 2.142
GB.

Some body told me to make the HDD in 3 parts. When I did this, windows
displayed the HDD as three parts. And each part contains 2.142 GB. But
CD-ROM drive disappeared!

When I restart windows in Dos mode, there was a message says “ Not enough
drive letters available “

After that I repartitioned the HDD to two parts only. And then the CD-ROM
icon came back! But I still have 4 GB only.

I installed the CD driver more than 3 times but nothing happened.

Can anybody help me?

Thank you all

Salah Gassim
