Adding third drive in Win2K

Having trouble adding a second IDE drive - finally used a second box (Win98) to partition and format the drive, but I still get an invalid configuration/invalid file error at bootup. Here's my rig:

Cheetah SCSI boot
Western digital 80G as master on primary IDE (this was there at OS install)
CD-ROM as primary on secondary IDE (this was there at OS install)
And now a 120GB Western digital as slave on primary IDE.

I have a feeling this is going to be one of those boot to the OS CD and run...

The system has been rock solid for over 2 mos, the only problem being that I was never able to get the SCSI drive designated as C:, so I left it as D:. This may have had to do with having to load third party scsi driver during install.

What I really want to do is to copy the 80gb drive contents to the 120gb, remove the 80gb (to another sys), and have the 120gb in its place.

I could copy across the network, but that will take quite some time.

Any help would be appreciated.
