when i installed windows i partitioned 50gb for xp. everything turned out fine and my first build is running great(thanks pcmech). i noticed though that all i can use is the 50gb of partitioned space and i can not see the other 200gb. can anyone tell me how to "unlock" the other 200gb. thank you!

Go into Disk Management and from there you can format and setup the unused portion to your liking.
