I don't know if this would be better in the software boot forum, but I've been using HDLoader with a 200 GB HDD for a while now, and just today it started displaying on the main menu that I have a 127 GB HDD with 35 GB free. Do you know what could account for this? I installed a game using WinHIIP earlier today, and then I fooled around with patching HDLoader so I could play it and it didn't work, but otherwise I don't know what I could have done to throw it off.

do some research on HD LOader. Some older versions (not sure about the new one) only had support for 120GB hard drive, so no matter what size you put in it you could only use 120GB of it.
Also som PC's that are not up to date with the latest XP releases can only format a drive to 120GB, so again the same rules apply. You could put a 300GB hard drive in that PC and will still only get 120GB from the format.
