Didn't read all the posts so I apologize if this has been said already.
Note: You are going to lose everything you have unless you have a way of backing it up.
What you need to do is perform a low lever format of the drive, unfortunatally fdisk does not have the ability to do this so you must use 3rd party software. What I recommend is getting maxtor, wd and seagate's hd install software. You should be able to boot to this software and perform a lower level format wich will fix your harddrives display in fdisk back to 20gigs, then you will have to do a regular format and install.
Hopefully that helps, it's a bitch but it's the easiest way.
