K thanks.

What is the best version and service pack of XP to put on an old Pentium lll desktop computer? ( Or If you think another os would be better besides windows 9x state the os.)

In other words BIOS did recognize the full size.

I would thing the BIOS would recognize the hard disk's full size since the BIOS is from 2003. (All info I have about the BIOS is below) Field Value BIOS Properties BIOS Type Award Award BIOS Type Phoenix-Award BIOS v6.00PG Award BIOS Message L7VMM2 3.0 02/21/2003 System BIOS Date 02/21/03 Video BIOS Date 10/05/01 BIOS Manufacturer Company Name Phoenix Technologies Ltd. Product Information http://www.phoenix.com/en/products/default.htm BIOS Upgrades http://www.esupport.com/biosagent/index.cfm?refererid=40 ***Note I get the info from Everest.

Yes it was fdisk.

I'm not trying to be ungrateful if thats the way your taking it I'm sorry and didn't mean it. But can you still post the website so I don't have to be such a pain to you all.

I don't think you understood what I meant by new. I JUST got into computer building three days ago and just started to learn DOS (such a NOOB ), but anyway I resolved the issue and partitioned the drive. Only thing I need to know now is the technical part so can anyone please pm me to a site where I can learn this. Thanks for all the replies.

Thanks for the replies. Sorry for the vague description I'm new, but anyway here it is.

Windows 98 wont recognize my hard-drive, but BIOS does. Any suggestions.
