Get a Win 98 startup floppy or download the ultimate bootdisk to startup your computer. To make it easy and mistake proof, remove the hard drive with your OS on it, and leave the 120 as a solo/master (change jumpers). When you get the A:> prompt, type in fdisk, then choose #4 which I think is "partition information". You'll see what partitions you have. Then hit escape until you get back to the menu.  Choose #3, or whichever one says remove partition.  Do that until all partitions are removed.  You can check by looking again at "partition Info".  When there are no partitions left hit escape until you're back to the fdisk menu and choose #1, which is the default for creating a partition.  When asked whether to make it active and to allow big drives choose yes. Then reformat the whole drive. After that you can change its jumpers to slave and put your OS hard drive back.

>The problem that I am having is that I can't seem to figure out how to get my computer to see that there is more than 8Gb of space on the drive.  fdisk will partition the drive but it configures for around 8Gb.

>(Side note:  I originally had this same drive on this same computer working as it should be but due to a crash of the original master drive, and my mistake, I 'accidently' partioned and re-formatted my 120 Gb drive instead of the new HDD.  Oopps.
