Question Hard Drive Size Problems

Its driving me crazy....
I have a Maxtor 160 hard drive and the computer does not see the hole 160gig's....?
The hard drive is jumpered at Master...Is there a jumper or a setting that I need to do?

I know it is something simple....
Can any pimp help a Bro out....

EDIT: trying the Maxtor's Big Drive Enabler....

Yes I have the new SP2 installed.....I think I found how to get the Xtra gig's...
I went into the Computer management Option and saw the Missing gig's...I was sweatin' there..
I Formatted the missing gig's. It made another Drive Letter after it was done....WOOT!
