Can't Boot Win 8 DELL XPS Desktop

Fairly new DELL XPS Desktop (less than 1 year) and was working fine. Then tried to clone a WD drive and puzzled over MBR button or other? Followed the prompts and when it started the reboot process we got the usual beep (hard drive found? then the usual DEll logo but no more motion on boot process or even sounds of harddrive spins.

Put in backup old hardrive and same result.

The biggest frustration is that it wont respond to any F keys like setup etc. this early in the boot process.

Any suggestions?
