Terabyte BootitNG users, need some help please

Maybe someone can help me out with this. I've set up a two hard drive (identical drives) dual OS (W98, XP) system, and used Terabyte's BootitNG to set up a second partition on the second hard drive. On the BootitNG Boot Menu there are two options; HD0 and HD1.

Here's the setup:
C: HD 0, Partition 0 - W98; programs and data
D: HD 1, Partition 0 - XP; programs
E: HD 1, Partition 1 - ; data
w98 previously installed...xp partition set up by xp install process (fat32)

Here's the facts.
In the bootitng menu, if I select:
- HD0 - using 'keystrokes' to bypass the native windows dual boot menu.....works great.
- HD0 - select W98 on the native windows dual boot menu.....works great.
- HD0 - select XP on the native windows dual boot menu.....works great.
- HD1 - immediately get blank screen with error message 'Remove disks or other media. Press any key to restart.'.

Everything else works fine....can use either OS, can hide/unhide the volumes from each other based on the boot selection, etc. It just won't let me boot into HD1, partition 0 from the menu selection screen. Don't know much at all about low level disk stuff, and couldn't even find that error message in my old MS-DOS book, so I have no idea how to use that error message to try anything else. Have already searched through TB's knowledge base online and didn't find anything about this problem/error message.

Any ideas ? Thanks
