I'm not sure whats wrong. Windows install disc sees it as 32gig, the other software i've got sees it as a 32gig drive.
The WD software and bios see it as a 250gig drive.
I tried to fdisk/mbr, I didn't know if this would work or not, partition magic and several freeware programs with no luck turning it back to a 250gig drive.
It happened after several failed attemps of gentoo. suse and gentoo see it as a 32gig drive also.
Any idea on what I could try?

i had that happen to me on a 120 gig western digital last year at the lan - i had to call western digital and they had to walk me though a reformat seems like the same problem your having . and this was a brand new drive .

what a bear to seeing i wanted to use it at the lan -

after messing with this thing ,off and on, for about a week. I found I had to make it the master drive and get an older version of the data lifeguard than came with the drive.
found it here http://wdc.custhelp.com/cgi-bin/wdc.cfg ... 2I* &p_li=

when i got my 250 from greg, the bios found it as 250

(with out any software) but winblows found 230
