three easy options here:
A) just enter disk management and right click on the unallocated section of your new drive and choose "format" this will give the remaining section of your hard drive a drive letter and format it
B) seeing as this is a new install >> you could slipstream SP-2 onto your native win xp disk >>>> then perfrom another clean install of windows this time with Sp-2 intergarated into the disk you wont get that 137 gig barrier
in my signature links / under procedures you will find slipstreaming
C) you could buy Partition Magic or look for a freeware partitioning program(majorgeeks.com / hard drive utilities) and bring the unsed section of your drive as it is now and migrate it into the 137gig partition. As you have discovered the installation of SP-2 after the drive has been formatted and installed does not cure or alter your drive set-up. SP-2 has to exist on the CD before the install.
