HDD Shrunk?

[Atrye]

I have a Samsung SP1213N 120GB HDD.

My bios and Windows setup says it is only about a 32GB drive...

Anyone know what I can do to fix this?

I am guessing that is what it is. Eventough the info is for Seagate, it should get there non-the-less.

Unless you have had the drive in your box before and it is just now doing that...then I have no idea.

Naw, he's got a different issue. only HDs thats bigger then 137 gigs have to break the barrier.

Try a different IDE cable or maybe wrong jumper settings? What does windows pick it up as? what motherboard is it

Good point. I was assuming that he was trying to add this what ever he had in there before getting the Samsung.

Guess that is what I get for assuming.

samsungs have drive size limiting jumpers. check jumper settings on the drive. in otherwords, RTFM.
