Windows 2000 Server - 320gb NTFS Hard Disk incorrectly recognized

Asked by LeighWardle in Windows 2000 Server

Tags: , , , ,

Hi

I have just added a 320gb IDE Hard Disk to a Windows 2000 Server system.
The Windows 2000 Server OS runs from a 160gb IDE Hard Disk.

The newly added 320gb Hard Disk has been formatted as a single NTFS partition (when installed in a Windows XP system).

My problem is that the Windows 2000 Server system only sees that partition as a 120gb partition that is not formatted.
I am sure this is not a hardware problem, as I can boot this hardware using a Windows XP system that runs entirely from a CD-ROM. The 320gb NTFS partition is recognized When that OS is running.

I have tried un-installing and re-installing the 320gb drive, but that doesn't make any difference.

Regards,
Leigh
