Where's my 72GB gone?

I know that this has been covered here before but not having had this
problem previously, the thread went in one ear and out of the other - So to
speak.

Also, I've looked in the archive but haven't managed to find much, so . .
.. . . . . .

My server (used mostly for file serving so it's more a NAS device!!) is a
900Mhz Athlon in a KT7A MoBo

I've just put another disk in it which is a 200GB Seagate

When I first rebooted, the BIOS reported it as a 128GB disk so I flashed
the BIOS and sure enough, the BIOS now sees it as 200GB.

However, Win 2K server still only sees 128.00GB, which it has formatted
fine. However, where's my "spare" 72GB gone!?

I did find something in the archive about needing Win2K SP3 or 4 for large
drives. I'm currently running SP4.

Anyone got any ideas how to get Win2K to see the full 200GB?

TIA

Regards

Neil
