Incorrect hard drive size

Hi can you help.

I have a problem with my computer.

I have two hard drives. One 750gb and one 300gb.

the 300gb one used to be my os system, window xp home edition. After a system crash and no backup (Stupid I know!!) I tried to repair xp. When I tried to repair it my system now only recognised the hard disks as one being 130gb (750gb) and the other 33gb (300gb) this is via the operating system. Via bios the 750gb is recognised as being 750gb but the 300gb one recognised as only 33.33 gb???

Really never come across this. Tried formatting and everything but no joy.

Any suggestions anyone??

Regards
