It's on now and it shows its name properly but still only 8GB.
Connect your new HD as a single drive (you probably need to rejumper it). Do not attach a second drive to that cable! If it then shows 160GB you know that your new drive doesn´t work together with the old 40GB drive (this only can happen in a Master/Slave configuration where both drives share a single cable). If you are lucky a mainboard BIOS update can solve that problem.
