What operating system are you using to FDISK? I believe that WIN95 has an
8GIG limit per partition. This would be your answer.

Subject: [PCBUILD] Recognize >10GB
Am I looking at a BIOS update to get a system to see > 8GB HD? Or,
could it be that I'm locked int to 8GB limit?
Ran fdisk on a system w/ a new 10GB IBM IDE drive. Fdisk only saw 8GB.
This particular system is a Micron Millennia MME Pentium 233MMX (socket
7) machine.
TIA
