Hello Corrado, I'm not one of the real experts, but I think your first problem might be that your windoze partition is formatted as FAT which is limited to 2g. You should convert to FAT32 to see large drives. There is another problem, however, with the Libretto's hibernation use of the disk. I'm not familiar with the 100/110, but on the 50/70 you must leave a 'size of your ram' space that is not used by the operating system as it is overwritten by the bios when hibernation occurs. On the 50/70, this is at the 8g boundry. Look at adorable libretto site for a long discussion of partitioning. Good Luck, terry On Thu, 2003-03-27 at 10:59, Corrado Formicola wrote: > Date: Thu, 27 Mar 2003 16:53:21 +0100 > From: "Corrado Formicola" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Subject: 20 GB HD help for L100Ct > > Dear experts, > I have a L100CT, 32 MB RAM, W98SE. > > I just upgraded with a 20 GB Hitachi new 9,5 mm.
