MS DOS and disk drives maybe OT

Please forgive me if this is Off Topic...


I have a 1 gig drive in a 486. The BIOS sees the whole 1.2 gig (wd
caviar 21200)
and I have set the parameters from the plate on the drive into the
bios...

But FDISK insists that the drive is only 504 MB. Who ate half of my
disk drive??

can I get it back?

how?

I have tried to create secondary partitions but "no disk space remains"


Thanks.

ron.
