I bought a new computer that has a 250G drive - Western Digitial SATA. 
When I run the system information from Windows XP it shows only 137G 
available. It is formatted in NTFS. The model is WD2500AAKS. They put 
Windows XP on for me. I have installed my programs starting to transfer 
files from my old hard drive okay but started run to out of space(Also 
putting new programs on). Is the operating system Windows XP Home 
edition reporting the wrong space or did they format it to this limit?
