There is this option in disk wizard to set 33 GB. Althoug I think I was careful enough to don't set it does somebody know how can I reset it?
The BIOS reports 40 GB after I run the disk wizard and then all works great, so there is something the wizard changes but what?

In an other thread I find that it was necessary to reset the BIOS so I extacted the small clock batery. After rebooting the problem was still here. If I boot with t...
