Ok, I have a 1997 Pontiac Sunfire SE. Someone stole the battery and broke the negative cable when doing so. I replaced the battery and cable, the dash lights continually flash while the car is being driven and gauges drop as if it was going to die, then my sister was driving it and it died, not sure the exact circumstances, but the car will not start. Have checked the charge, the fuel, and a few other items. What else should I check and could the anti theft system have something to do with this and if so how do I reset it?

You need to get the radio code which will cost you, Search for radio codes online or call the dealer. The dealer will not give you the code intil you can prove you own the car but since this is a replacement from another vehicle someone will need the model and serial number of the radio.
I personally would of had a aftermarket one installed. It would of saved you alot of aggravation.
