So after 3 hours of trying all manner of cable configurations, jumper settings and BIOS options I logged on my own PC and looked for help andthis is the first page that I clicked on.
I followed all steps above, (Luckily there wasn't an administrator's password as he didn't know it anyway,) and viola! PC back to normal. Thanks for the help, it saved me a lot more embarrassment!</ul>
