Just bought an internal hard drive. Is it possible to run games fine off it using it as a secondary drive or will I have to get a copy of xp and use it as the main drive? My crappy 80 gig drive is full of games already. Don't even buy games for the pc anymore cuz I don't really have any room.

If you have this hard disk as a secondary hard disk (you boot your system from the other hard disk) than I don't think there should be a problem.
If you want to replace another hard disk by this one you will need some kind of OS (for example Windows XP) if the HD you want to replace is the HD with the OS.
I only have one HD myself, so I'm not entirely sure, but I think it should work just fine.

Yes, it should be fine for you to install games on your new slave drive, and still boot from your master drive.
