When I built my PC I installed a 40Gb Seagate Hard Drive, which I partitioned into two 20Gb drives. The problem now is that Windows ME only recognises one partition, so I effectively only have a 20Gb drive.

Any Suggestions on how to get back to the full 40Gb

 
You didn't say, but are we to assume that at some time in the past both partitions were running and in use? If so, have you still got data you need on the "other" partition?

If not, then assuming the partition still exists, you can format it from within ME. If it doesn't exist. you'll need to run FDISK to create it, then format.

sounds like you might have forgotted to format your other partition.
