    HD partitioning

    I've just been re-installing XP on a new HD (laptop)
    The HD is 120Gb
    I was offered the choice of creating a partition on the HD before XP installed.
    I chose to create a 60Gb partition. (thinking to have 2 seperate drives in windows)
    Now its installed, it only sees this half of the HD.
    How can I access the rest?????
