Which option should i use when I run the 98 CD?
I think my next step is to disconnect the new HDD and see if it runs OK without it still. The cable might be loose on the MOBO.

Hi m8...
You need to fdisk the second drive and format it before it will work. Hold CRTL on the keyboard just before windows starts to load and you will see a menu. Slect command prompt only from the list.
Type fdisk
select option 5 then enter.
Select disk 2
create an extended dos partition and then create a logical drive within the extended partition.
Exit Fdisk and reboot the computer folowing the same steps above for the menu.
at the command prompt type format d:
