G'day Richard,
Got to the BIOS (using Delete key pressed).
The LED's showed "Decompressing BIOS image to RAM for fast booting."

Then reattached every thing as you described. (I had already had the Burner as Master on IDE 2, the DVD is the slave on IDE 2). I removed the DVD for the test though.
No joy. No booting. The LED's show "Memory detection test. -testing onboard memory size. The D-LED will hang if the memory module is damaged or not installed properly."
I removed the IDE 2 cable, same result.

Cheers.
Fortunately the computer store is just up the road and I have a credit card
