Why my hard disk is not showing its full capacity?

Hi all,

I've just built a new PC with 500gb hard disk.

However it now shows only 150gb?!!

I guess I know why that happened. I installed windows 7, and earlier during the installation there was a menu about partitioning and what not. Being a noob and planning to install ubuntu as second OS, I thought, why not create partitions of 150gb (for ubuntu) and 350gb (intended for windows)?

But now I'm stuck with 150gb only for windows. I don't mind that, really, but my real question is :

How do I make use of the remaining 350gb? And how do I install ubuntu onto the 350gb (which I don't know where)?
