This sounds you've only partitioned and formatted about 25GB of the drive.
Go to Control Panel -> System and Maintenance -> Administrative Tools ->
Computer Management -> Disk Management to get an overview of what is going
on with the disk.
From there you'll be able to make a new partition, which would show up as a
new drive aka D:. Or you may be able to extend your existing partition to
fill the entire disk, it depends how a few things are setup.
