Msn messenger, isnt showing all my contacts.

it says due to a connection problem, changes you make might not be applied to other computers you use.

stop using msn, use GAIM

you may need to download a large disk enabler for windows - it will get stuck at 130GB (again, maxtor do one, you'll need to check with your manufacturer)

if you bought the drive OEM, check t'internet, if you bought it reatil, it should be on the CD

Hard drive : How big is the physical drive?? XP witn no SP will only recognize 130gb. Right click my computer, choose manage, click on disk Management, whch will show you if the drive is being seen as the right size. and if there is any unused space that you can make into a partition. (The only way to make the drive the size of the partion is a) resinstall XP with SP2 included, b) use partition magic to resize the current partition). Otherwise its 2 partitions for you meladdie.

Floppy : on mobo bios, disable floppy presence, disable floppy controller to solve.

USB 2 : Install all drivers that came with the motherboard to solve.
