hi all...

i recently bought a wdd 200 gb sata hdd and used the lifeguard tool from the wdd site to format and partition it...made 5 partitions of 10, 10, 20, 20 ,130 gbs...installed xp and then upgraded to xp sp2

however now, i want to reinstall windows, it just shows one drive of 189 gbs ...not recognisable by windows...wat do i do?
