Does anybody knows what a maximum partition size in W2K is?
I'm trying to install Windows 2000 Prof on 200Gb disk but only 130Gb is available.
Thank you in advance for answer

I know that WinXP has a problem with hard drives larger than 137GB unless using Service Pack 1.

I found this to be excellent reading:

Verify that it is enabled LBA for the disk in the BIOS...
