HD Partitions

Hi,
I ha ve a problem with my hard disk. It had 4 partitions but after a
Linux installation, partition table has been corrupted. So I thought to
format it completely.
I used fdisk and I have erased all partitions and digited the command
fdisk /mbr too. But now fdisk can see only 12 Gb instead of 80 Gb.
My hard disk is a Maxtor. How can I do to resolve the problem? I just
wanna fdisk can see all space.

Thank you,

Nicola

There's an updated fdisk on Microsoft's site. I think the Linux fdisk
also works. It's been discussed here many times, so Google should
easily turn up additional information.
