I tried running the utility (it was Toshiba by the way) and it couldn't seem to recognize it as a Toshiba product. Also, my friend brought a lynux CD and using that the drive came up as 89 gig and refused to partition under any file format. I went out and bought a Western Digital 500 gig SATA and I'm currently putting windows under a decent 130 gig partition.
Unfortunately, the XP cd doesn't seem to recognize the total 500 gig so I'll use the lynux cd to partition the rest later. If that doesn't work I'll be mighty pissed.

Also, I've switched the 8800gts out for a 7600gt *cries* until I can get a better power supply. Hopefully this will clear up my issues. Hopefully....
