laptop doesn't show full disk size on samsung hm160hc

[schbear54]

is there a firmware that would allow my laptop to use the full size of the disk? It only shows max size of 32.4GB and its 160 GB

That Hard disk is bit old. Have you try to reinstall the OS?
If not format that HDD using Command Prompt.

Really?... What exactly the Operating System that you've been used during all these process?
I don't seems this hard disk should be great option to use with never Operating Systems...
