Western Digital HD problem

ok so my dad has a dell that came with a 20GB seagate hard drive and he bought a new western digital 80GB hard drive. so after we set it to slave, got it to detect it, and formatted it the stupid thing only says it has like 2GB of space. we tried formatting it over and over but it keeps coming up as 2GB. anybody have any idea as to what we could do to get it to detect the full 80GB? thanks
