Default Will my XP recognize 160 Gig HD?

*Win2K* requires a 48bit LBA patch to successfully use drives larger
than 137GB, but XP comes with that built in.


Dangerously false. Only XP SP2 is safe 137G.


I sit corrected. Thanks for the clarification. I went to XP SP2 in the
first place, so I didn't encounter the 137GB issue.
