I recently changed my original battery in my 1998 Volvo v70 T5.  I now have:
no speedometer, no tachometer, odometer changed to kilometers, and the
information display is blank (clock, temp, gas mileage, etc.)

Any ideas on what to do?

Try disconnecting the negative side of the battery and reconnecting it after
a minute or so. Sometimes electronic equipment gets confused by a tentative
on-again off-again connection to the battery and needs a reset.
