Hello. I bought a WD 500 GB external hard drive with a fat32
partition. Using the xp manage dialog, I wiped the partition and want
to put a 250 gb partition. The new partition wizard will allow a 500
gb partition, but if I click the down arrow, it goes to 18 gb. If I
type 250 gb, then it puts in 18 gb. Why won't this work?

Thanks,
IMF
