I bought a 120 gig Maxtor drive and stupidly allowed DDO while messing around in DOS. I now can't undo it - my bios wouldn't recognise a larger drive which is why I was seeing what DDO did. I'm now stuck with a day old drive showing just 30 odd gigs of it's capacity. I tried Maxtors site and they suggest putting the drive in another P.C with a newer bios. Tried this but no luck. My 30 odd gig limit remains.

I'm getting very peeved now, not to mention very annoyed at myself for "fiddling". Can anyone help me get rid of this annoyance? Or have I wasted ÃƒÆ’Ã¢â‚¬Å¡Ãƒâ€šÃ‚Â£60. Thanks.
