if its running in FAT16 mode or your motherboard doesnt support LBA, which seein by the spec it dont, it wont register any more than around 8gb.

PS: PC World are crap. Why would anyone actually technically skilled work in a shop for shop pay :boggle:

Personally I would have thought it's unlikely a P150 wouldn't support LBA to support 8gb plus.

I have a P166 as a firewall here and it's happily using a 20Gb drive...

Check with your motherboard manual or check their website...
